    Agent Carter

    In the If You Blink You'll Miss It Dept. there was a shot of airplane tickets in the latest episode, which showed the profile of a Boeing 707/Douglas DC-8 jet... the LAPD detective who went "cold case",so to speak, was outfitted pretty well,though I wondered if his Colt Official Police was the...

    Agent Carter

    Thanks, Doctor, for that info. Did anyone else get a chuckle out of Stark forgetting Dottie's name throughout the episode? regards, Tecolote

    Agent Carter

    I watched the finale again.Did anyone notice the Flying Wing in Stark's hangar(I didn't until the second time?) That is the restored N9MB,which is in flyable condition. It ,the two P51s and the Corsair came from the Planes of Fame organisation per their Facebook page. Having a Flying Wing is...

    Agent Carter

    Thanks for the links. I think her points would points would made the show way too complex and confusing,especially considering its short run. Regards, Tecolote

    Agent Carter

    Here are a few stills from the upcoming episode; Looks like Stark gives a press conference. Somebody gets shot at,maybe Stark;BTW the cop's gun is period correct, and patrol car is cool although I can't comment on its accuracy. Dottie and Faust playing pattycake,not. I think we know know what...

    Agent Carter

    Tonight's episode has Peggy out on a ledge as the SSR agents go past the first floor of her hotel: and Dottie has her eye on something with an iron-framed 1860 Henry rifle with a scope sight;I find it interesting that the bad guys are using weapons based on Civil War guns(re Mr. Mink's...

    Hollywood Jackets

    I'm glad I found this thread as I've always kind of liked this style(not that I have any),but never knew what to call it. I decided I had to find out more since watching Agent Carter as Howard Stark is wearing these almost exclusively. Was this an L.A. thing or would you find this style in 1946...

    Agent Carter

    IIRC, the Black Widow school has some basis in truth in that KGB illiegals were trained in fake US(and other) towns so they'd fit in easily with the the target populations. I wonder what Agent deSousa will do with his evidence(other than what we saw in the previews). Shame we've only got 3 more...

    Here's a photo of the typwriter/talc/safetyrazor- transmitter: and another cool jacket worn by Stark: and(spoiler alert-Peggy reunites with the Howling Commandos: to which I believe one of the above linked articles refers . Regards, Tecolote

    Agent Carter

    Howard Stark's jacket with the leather trim is, IMHO, the coolest one in the show: Did this kind of jacket have a particular name,or was it just "leather trimmed"? And,just for fun, here's the view behind the counter of the automat/diner: Regards, Tecolote

    Agent Carter

    Lizzie,thanks for your info the automats. I do not think they ever made it down to early 1950s Atlanta where I started life, but I do remember that the old Candid Camera show used to have alot of fun in them. As to the lack of hats in the show, my dad never seemed to be much of a hat man; he...

    Agent Carter

    Doctor Strange: I appreciate your comments about the bridge and the Chrysler Building. I didn't know that, and obviously the producers,etc. in L.A. didn't either, and frankly probably didn't care a bit.Being the OP of the thread, I was hoping for more of the informtion such as you and others...

    Agent Carter

    As it is a sci-fi show, I suppose the show can be given a little wiggle room. The look of the show reminds me of Mob cityalmost as if that's what the producers used as a template. Carter's PPK/s is,as shown on IMFDB in a sreencap, is a U.S. made 9mm kurz(380 ACP), rather unusual in wartime...

    Agent Carter

    Is anyone watching Agent Carter, the latset Marvel entry.It's set in 1946, and the cars, clothes,scenery seem good. A camera girl uses a nice Leica Screw mount, Howard Stark has a nifty boat, cool ties on the gents. All in all, it seems like a pretty good effort to me, even though Carter's...

    MOB CITY / L A Noir [TNT]

    Well, the foreshaowing with the M1 carbine turned out to be on target(pun intended); from what I can gather the hit on Bugsy was pretty accurate, although the actuall first two shots came last in the show, obviuosly for dramatic effect, and the actual gunman was closer, with his carbine rested...

    MOB CITY / L A Noir [TNT]

    Kirk H. : Yes, it is. At least one scene in the preview for next week shows Teague,with his coat on,at night, aiming the carbine... By the way, here's a photo of Chief Horrall inspecting the detectives in 1947: Note the lack of snub revolvers.. Regards, Tecolote
