    Why Don Draper IS Lounge

    I think the OP was saying that Draper "is lounge," meaning he is a model of the cocktail lounge, hotel lounge, blah blah culture. Not of The Fedora Lounge proper. At least I hope not. Draper's an interesting character, but hardly a role model.

    The general decline in standards today

    The ban on politics is posted in stickies and has been in effect for most of the life of The Fedora Lounge. We expect new members to read the rules, and abide by them. The Fedora Lounge is for those who appreciate and have a fondness for the time period covering, roughly, 1920-1960. From your...

    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    This is completely unnecessary and below our standards of conduct. Your tone isn't winning any friends. Please stick to the discussion and remember the litmus test we apply: "would what has been written be offensive if it were delivered out loud, at a live, brick-and-mortar dinner gathering of...

    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    Anybody what picks on LoHa gets shown the door, toot-suite - and will probably be carried out on that door by the other patrons. (nice to see you, kiddo)

    Hair control without darkening

    You took a little too much pleasure in typing that out. The result, I'm guessing, of too little attention paid to the proper application of formal wear- a known Morals Slackener.

    There should be a word for a person who likes old clothes

    There is a very long thread discussing this, begun by Senator Jack. "Retro Extremists? What Are We?"

    Bill Murray as FDR-‘Hyde Park on the Hudson’

    Murray in dramatic brilliance: Lost in Translation, The Lost City. Really looking forward to this one. He is one of the best actors working. That voice is probably once-in-a-millennium. And perfectly burnished with breeding, self-knowledge, smoke, and gin.

    Living in the past

    Vintage ain't cheap. "He spends too much?" I must be getting old. Though I operate on what is very much a thin (thin) budget, all I got from the article was "here's a chap who is living the life, doing it well, and entertaining people, making his own way." Can we just appreciate the...

    The Elephant in the Room - Man Purse

    That is FANTASTIC! I have that same bag: but it usually carries my iPad, some nondescript binoculars or a camera, and a notebook and pencil. Excellent image of interesting objects. Welcome to The Fedora Lounge!

    Kirby Vacuums

    I've just gotten a Kirby model 509 (1949), but it just has a floor polisher attachment. It looks all original, but I'm on the hunt for the regular front-end vacuum bit and attachments.
