    24 Rules For Gentlemen in 2014

    Alimony. In that regard, we are still living in the Golden Era. When a marriage ends, a woman holds every single card, and the system is designed to help her play them out to best advantage. I'll always hold the door, treat wait staff well, etc., because it's just who I am and to do otherwise...

    I've been watching Max Linder one-reelers. He was a great talent, and influenced Chaplin, among others. Career all in by 1925, suicide.

    Christmas Vintage: The Parker 51

    The Parker 51 was a fashionable innovation in fountain pens, introduced in 1941. Wartime restrictions kept demand unfilled until sometime post-war. Billed "The World's Most Wanted Pen" in advertising, examples are still desirable today. Here's a nice looking one, in a good color...

    DIAMOND DAVE's/Howl Clothing CAFE RACER- REVIEW

    If you have a look at the Affiliate threads, you'll see that they are talking specifics, directly with members. "This is our newest model." "This is the new leather we have available." "Yes, we can make this up in a special fabric for you." We provide the real estate for a merchant to make this...

    Fiebing's Mink Oil Paste on jacekts?

    Agreed. Avoid the mink oil in any form, or neatsfoot. Yes, they used them "back in the day," but we know better. Get Pecards.

    Christmas Vintage: Satin Edge Wool Blankets

    It would be difficult to put together a vintage bedroom without a wool blanket with a satin edge showing at the top of the bed(s), neatly folded and tucked. Here are a few good examples from eBay. This one is a common, usable color. Some are in bright pinks and yellows, purples, etc...

    Natty Custom Made Shirts For Only $29.99

    There are no custom made shirts available anywhere on the planet, to my knowledge, at a price this far south of $100. Let alone at the excellent quality of cloth and craftsmanship I've consistently seen, personally, from Natty. These are the bargain of the age.

    Christmas Vintage: Red & White Enamelware

    In my area, black and white enamelware is easy to find. Red & white, not so much. Especially in coffee pots and bake ware. Like these: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-ENAMELWARE-COFFEE-POT-9-Red-White-Handle-Even-Snray-Marked-NICE-/200996572586?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ecc544daa...

    Christmas Vintage. Tablecloths.

    It's a paradox: Best time to buy vintage Christmas decorative items is in the summer, when prices are lower. But the better stuff comes out to sell at Christmas time, when prices are higher (of course). I'm finding some fun items to share. Here are a few tablecloths from the 40's-60's. These...
