    When Do You Think This Hat is From?

    Here are some pictures (after freezing the hat for a day!) All I hope is that there is no ringworm on it. There is a little stamp on the side. It says made in England for Marshall Fields, and 60% Wool and 40% Other. The stamp is extremely hard to read, and is very faded. There is a better...

    When Do You Think This Hat is From?

    The reason I am freezing the hat, is just in case there is fungus, or disease on it. I think what I'm doing is overkill though, as the eBay seller said they had the hat for years in a closet. I suppose I could wash it. The hat is soft, the crown is stiff, and the brim is not stiff at all, yet...

    When Do You Think This Hat is From?

    I got the hat today, and I have tried it on. It fits! :D Now only one problem remains. How long do you leave a hat in the freezer? 24 hours? 48 hours? According to the description on eBay, the hat was left in a closet for many years.

    When Do You Think This Hat is From?

    While browsing eBay, I found this hat. When do you think this hat is from? It says that it's made in England by/for Marshall Fields. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mens-Tweed-Fedora-Hat-England-for-Marshall-Fields-Wool-Blend-Showerproof-/291589325948?hash=item43e414047c:g:vzwAAOSwjVVVylo0

    Which Shuron Frames Should I Get?

    Today, the glasses arrived! I think I will get the Ronsirs in transition lenses, and the Freeways in normal prescription lenses. :) Tomorrow, I will probably take some more pictures (with better lighting.) :) Shuron Ronsir ZYL in Tortoise Shuron Freeway in Brown Smoke

    Which Shuron Frames Should I Get?

    I don't think I made the sizes in the image quite correct, as if you look closely, you can see that the nose pieces aren't touching my nose. I got a size 50 22 140. My current glasses are 53 17 140, so they should fit about the same (my current frames were stretched wider a bit on the arms...

    Which Shuron Frames Should I Get?

    I wound up getting a pair of Freeways in Brown Smoke, and a pair of Ronsir Zyls in Tortoise.

    Which Shuron Frames Should I Get?

    I was thinking of getting two pairs, one for glasses, and one for sunglasses. I suppose I could get one in the Freeway, and another in the Ronsir Zyl.

    Show us your Thrift and/or yard sale finds

    Today, I went to the thrift store. I got two Crucifixes for free, and a little Radnor Bone China flower decoration. Hand Made HB Radnor Bone China Staffordshire England Plastic Crucifix. It has a 1 in a circle on the back. It may be vintage, or it may be not. Wooden Crucifix. It has...

    Which Shuron Frames Should I Get?

    After looking at Shuron frames on Frames Direct, I decided to Photoshop both the Shuron Freeway, and the Shuron Ronsir Zyl onto my face. If I were to get the Freeway, I would get them in brown smoke color. If I were to get the Ronsir Zyl, I would get tortoise color (sadly, not available in the...

    I edited the background out of these photos. I also made one look like a vintage photo (somewhat.)

    Private Message Notification Suggestion

    I occasionally get private messages, but I never notice until days, or weeks later, as I rarely look at the text at the top right of the screen. I have been on other forums which, when you receive a private message, you get a pop-up in the center of the screen telling you. This would be very...

    Vintage Collar Bars: Too Small for Modern Shirts?

    So I'd assume that 70s shirts would work well for collar bars, as they have wide collars?
