    Old Movie Posters - anyone collect, and what?

    How do you store/display your paper? Do you use archivist approved light blocking glass and acid free backing paper? I used to work at the 20th Century Fox Archives, where I learned a lot. Although I don't store any of my collection as an archive would, I definitely wish I had the time/money...

    More important things than politics.

    I completely agree. The world is in major upheaval. Our own singular perspectives and force fed media sources make it seem like the world is coming apart at the seams, even if history has shown that life bounces back time and time again. A middle of the road mainstream comedian without...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Lux Interior, lead singer of the Cramps died today! We live in a sad lonely world. The amount of important and truly heroic people that have died in the last year or two makes for an empty uninspiring world. :(...

    Show us your suits

    Marc, correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you win a particularly striking Brooks Brothers (?) 1920's (?) 2 piece suit consisting of a black and white take off on a herringbone weave that -almost- resembled diamonds? Do you have any further pictures or insight upon receiving the suit? :)

    GASP! HOLY GRAIL of 40s Suits: Dated SB Peaked Lapel Action Belt Back Pinstripe Suit!

    And it's interesting to note how low the sleeves extend compared to the bottom of the jacket. I think that there was significantly less of a rule about where the bottom of a jacket is supposed to hang compared to your hands.

    GASP! HOLY GRAIL of 40s Suits: Dated SB Peaked Lapel Action Belt Back Pinstripe Suit!

    I'd love to see a close up of the pleats below the back belt! I always viewed pin/chalk stripes as a more business look while the belted back as more casual, very cool mix here indeed! The origins of the business in the front, party in the back concept!? haha

    crosley radios

    I picked up this one too a month or two ago. So far, so good! I really like the fact it's not a component system but plays records. I have had various component systems with much better sound. But right now I'm not sure if I'm moving in the soon future or not and I don't want to buy...

    Wanna 1920s/'30s-style Newsboy Cap? Have One Made!

    Are you having it designed with a cinching strap? Sounds great! Does your guy take orders over the phone or anything? How much will it run you?

    Custom 30's German bike jacket

    Fantastic jacket! You've got me thinking of getting one myself one day! Due to how close fitting the cut of the jacket is, how possible do you think it would be to add a half belt with center back pleat or even two for added ease of movement? I spoke with Aero about the general concept and...

    NYC's Film Forum

    I got shut out of a few of their rare 30's Paramount & Universal Horror screenings a few years ago... definitely better to be cautious and buy tickets ahead of time. Not sure if you need to be a member to do that, or what their bank nite drawing only tickets are. Maybe I should just bite the...
