Recently picked up this nifty suit at a thrift store. Light peach (or apricot?), light-weight wool, early '50s, "Designed by Daroff." Was a 43L, so I had to take the chest in about 11/2"; may have to take the waist in a tiny bit. I asked the clerk if there was a discount on the suit, to which he replied no, but then took off 10% anyway. Wore it on Monday, and got some compliments at (of all places) Bloomingdale's.

Lee, that is a sweet looking suit there. Great find! :eusa_clap

I picked up a 3-piece tuxedo this weekend. It appears to be from the late 30s. It has a button fly. I am working on pictures. Any advice regarding care and dry cleaning would be appreciated. It appears the lapel and vest are silk.

Okay it works. I'm sorry the pictures aren't great.

The tuxedo pants have a button fly. There is no label. Anyone have advice regarding care and dry cleaning?

I have a Firley Herringbone tweed suit from Cordings. I have two different sets of trousers for it; one pair of straight trousers and also Plus Twos for cycling. Since I'm chief marshal in London's Tweed Run, the other week I was wearing the plus twos:

Today, I'm wearing it at work, so back in the straight trousers (I didn't cycle in today - recovering from an injury):
