Vintage Pics in your vintage threads!

Dan, your suit may be a type of Donegal tweed, which is characterized by thick, bi-colored (or multicolored) slubs.

Incidentally, after seeing this suit firsthand, I can honestly say that the workmanship is fantastic. Marshall Field was Chicago's finest and most expensive department store for decades, and this must have been one of its best suits.

Very sleek.

Dan,

You have to come up here some time soon and I'll show you the different colors of ties that can go with that great suit! Well, Marc can too I'm sure of that!

The tie you wore with it is truly it's best fit but, there are other ties that will work with it to enable you to wear the suit with out wearing the same tie.

Cheers,

=WR=

Wow, Big Man, you bumped a thread that has been buried for 5 years. That is impressive!
So long that the poster above you, Wild Root, has died and been reincarnated as Forgotten Man.
Amazing.

What can I say ... sometimes I can do something right ...

I've already posted these in the 'What are you wearing' thread but this actually seems more appropriate - apologies for the double-posting nonetheless. They were taken by Gordon Ayres who specialises in vintage-style photography using vintage cameras. He's never been near a digital camera in his life and is baffled by the very concept of Photoshop! www.gordonayresphotographer.com

Lovely as ever, Miss Hannah.

Is that Junior Johnson in the passenger seat?
That is a great picture and something that you probably could find in an antique store picture postcard section. Well done. :eusa_clap

Thanks. By the way, Wilkes County (home of Junior Johnson) is about 45 miles north east of here. And, as a side note, not all of the "product" Junior is famous for transporting came out of Wilkes. We do, er I mean, did our fair share of contributing to that industry.

How close is Ol' Popcorn Sutton to you?
I understand he still, er I mean, used to make some great stuff.

Popcorn lived in Haywood County, NC which is about 70 or so miles west of here. He died in early 2009.

I brought a black and white disposable camera (clearance for 2 bucks at my old job) with me over to Ireland and i'm surprised, black and white really makes a difference.

Popcorn died?! There goes my source, er I mean, a really talented man.
What happened to the old fedora wearing Likker Man?

Popcorn got caught and a Federal Judge gave him active time. He was in his late 60's and had been diagnosed with cancer. His plea to serve his time under house arrest was denied, partly due to the notoriety he had gained from the documentary about his moonshine making. Just before Popcorn was to begin serving time, he killed himself.
