    Crazy driving in 1939!

    Back then also, things were designed to be rebuildable. You didn't get a new starter or a new generator or even a new voltage regulator, you had yours rebuilt. Nowadays, if a car's engine needs to be rebuilt, the car is generally ready for the junkyard.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Yep, the cookie-cutter creases leave me cold. Watch any movie from the 1930s, nobody had that look. I love hats that are so soft that you pretty much shape them every time you put them on.

    Congratulations to the winner, hope it was a fellow Lounger. Great hat, wish I could have afforded to go higher.

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    I think I first asked the question "What's the matter with kids these days?" when I was about 22. Early-onset curmudgeon-hood, I guess.

    Harley Davidson's "American Bombshell"

    As a practical matter, the only motorcycles I see guys my size riding are Harleys. I don't think the other manufacturers really believe that guys like me are out there. And no disrespect to the model in those pictures, but I think Harley would have done better to hire our own Lolita Haze. :)

    Flaking Hatband

    Yeah, what the hell IS that stuff? It feels like some kind of cardboard masquerading as leather.

    The Bowler or Derby Hat

    Here you go: Guess I'll have to dig up my good digital camera again. I took those pics a few years ago, and for some reason I didn't get an overall shot.

    The Bowler or Derby Hat

    Welcome aboard Dr. Nelson, it is indeed an honor. I have three bowlers, but my clear favorite is my Crofut & Knapp.

    Wonder whatever happened to Daisy Buchanan? She hasn't posted in quite a while, hope she's OK.

    Shuron Glasses

    The Shuron website says they've been in business since the 1860s, and they introduced the first "Browline" (Plastic on top of the lenses, metal below) in 1947.

    Harold Lloyd fans?

    Thanks Lizzie. Harold Lloyd could have written a textbook for actors on how to manage their careers. He's one of the very few who held on to their money and were able to enjoy a comfortable retirement. Contrast with Buster Keaton who had to do ridiculous movies near the end of his life for money.
