    NEWS BOY CAPS

    Mark, Thats a great film clip of the streets of London! I wanted to ask if anyone has a cap from Al's Attire located on Grant Ave in North Beach SF? I stopped in and it looks like they make a great custom cap with leather sweat and a nice selection of fabrics to choose from. Would be worth...

    Zasu 20s 30s Style Eight Panel Caps

    Zasu 20s 30s Style Eight Panel Caps

Ralph suggested I send him a preferred material and after months of looking I came across a pair of nos thick wool pants from the 20's that seemed perfect. I sent Ralph...

    Class rings, onetime popular mementos, losing popularity

    I had heard from my father who took a trip to Paris last year that his class ring was a topic of great interest to many people. For myself my class ring just never found a comfortable home outside a wooden box in my closet.

    Palco with hidden stitching sweat (patent)

    Thanks for asking Dinerman. Thought this might have been yours. I'm really liking it!!! Pretty much perfect fit and proportions for me. I was able to spot tone the imperfections using a sepia toned photographic dye that came out very well. Nick

    Great Film Scenes

    So many greats come to mind but this one from the french film" Girl on the Bridge" has resonated with me recently. Also the Marianne Faithful / Angelo Badalamenti song is incredible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxCSQY4zskg&feature=fvw

    NEWS BOY CAPS

    Marc, another great thread. Thanks! I'm a 7 1/4 so it looks like I'm outta luck on this:( Anyone find it's best to go up in size with caps to allow for any shrinking that may occur . Seems my wool 8 panel needs a bit of stretching every so often.

    Nice flat cap Garrett! Walked past that address in the Quarter many many times. Used to be predominately an Italian neighborhood right along the river port. Still a great block with a couple Italian grocery's that date back to the 30's.
