    What's for Dinner?

    Same here-my wife's recipe which wonderfully combines a slightly sweet taste-addition of corn syrup-and hot spice-crushed red peppers-among its ingredients, along with cheese bread. Earl

    Show us your Militaria

    If I could do photos I would. But, then when I describe this, folks will know what it looks like. My great uncle who fought in Europe in WWII brought back an enormous Nazi flag which I've hung on to out of historical interest and an interest in WWII-can't say I've ever displayed it, however.:D...

    Christmas Decor

    I know what you mean and it's rather sad. Have received the smallest number this year I can remember in my nearly 59 years of life. Some who have sent to us for many years did not do so this year. Speaking of age, however, and also sad, as I was going through our address book in prepping for the...

    Turquoise/Native American jewelry

    I'd wear 1 if I had 1 appealing to me. I do occasionally wear a Nepalese silver band heavily incised with Buddhist images along with the occasional bead Buddhist wrist mala. Earl

    Turquoise/Native American jewelry

    Lovely pieces here. Am a fan of Native American jewelry, having 3 rings, 2 bolos, (1 of which is Lakota beadwork from my native South Dakota, the other a turquouis piece about 5 inches in diameter from New Mexico), and a Zuni inlaid watch. Only signed piece is a ring from Cheyenne artist Lutz...

    James Bond: Skyfall

    Just saw it yesterday. It was OK but I was a bit disappointed as it didn't live up to the hype for me. Liked the previous 2 Craig Bond films better. Earl

    Found some luggage in the attic

    Well, as for those specific ones, cannot say. But do recall that type still being in use in the 50's and early 60's. I'm a tad vintage in age.:D Earl

    Rings

    Those are some fine rings. I have a bit of a thing for rings. Besides my wedding ring, have 6 others I wear on a rotating basis, (the wedding band on 1 hand and another ring on the other). 3 are Native American, (1 Navajo and 2 Northern Plains), 2 onyx, (1 silver, 1 gold), and a garnet in gold...

    Can Anyone Pull Off a Wide-brim Fedora?

    I like a wider brim, never less than 2 1/2 inches for me. Bought a lovely dove grey one recently at Hatman Jack's in Wichita. It was 2 3/4. When I pointed it out to try it on, the venerable Hatman said that it wouldn't work on me. Then when I put it on, he said, yeah that works better on you...

    Leather Wallets - A pictorial review of my favourites

    That wallet triggered some vague memories in my 58 y.o. brain-I do believe I saw my grandpa with 1 of those. I do own a vintage wallet-not the in your back pocket kind of thing, but 1 of those longer single folds that I use at times when I slip it into the inside pocket of a suit coat or sport...

    Show us your vintage home!

    I appreciate your curiosity Miss Stella and Tonyb. My wife had gotten the urge for a larger place because our immediate family has long gotten together for several days monthly at our home for a long time and we were starting to feel like we were living on top of each other and she talked me...

    Show us your vintage home!

    At an age most might think of down-sizing, we just moved into a 112 year-old Victorian with twice the square footage of our old place. Owner did it up beautifully with a period look maintained including some of the original intricately carved brass hardware on the doors, embossed, "tin-type"...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Unfortunately, do not have the ability in a number of ways to post a pic of my purchase yesterday at the venerable Hatman Jacks in Wichita. Been there a few times before I finally pulled the trigger and bought my second fedora I've been wanting to add to my 1 fedora collection since I bought a...

    Ring around the Collar-- HELP!

    Have always sprayed collars and arm pits with Spray and Wash every time prior to washing and it's always prevented staining. The trick is not to let the stains even start. Earl

    Sam Craig

    Didn't know where else to post this information. So, please move if it is not in the right fourm. But, as he was an avid fan of hats and posted often here, thought I'd let others know that Sam Craig, known in real life as Chuck Smith, a fellow resident of Great Bend, Kansas, died of an apparent...
