    Pencil Mustache

    You look a bit like Jackie Gleason (he wore a pencil thin often as he got older). Very rugged.

    Hair cuts

    Is there a name for the style Nixon and Ford have here? It seems to have been very popular in the Golden Era up to around the 80s and not just with politicians: It seems to be long on the top and sides (long enough that if not combed or held it in place it would've hung over their ears and...

    Need advice on archiving stuff

    My uncle recently gave me my grandfather's WWII duffel bag, which housed my grandfather's personal possessions. My grandpa died back in 1975. In the bag all mixed together was a ton of stuff including: -Multiple photos spanning from WWII to the 1970s. -A complete map of New York City from...

    What kind of jacket might this be?

    One thing I wonder is if the jacket in the picture is simply his jacket for that job. This is a picture taken sometime in the '60s, while at work at the job the ID is from: However, in a later ID from the same employer, he's wearing a simple polo shirt--not part of the uniform. So I'm confused...

    What kind of jacket might this be?

    This is a picture of my grandpa from a work ID card. The ID card was issued in early March 1966. I can't tell if the marks on the jacket are scratches on the picture (as you can tell it's aged badly) or if they are designs on the jacket itself. What kind of jacket might it be, considering...

    Swing music question

    Hey can people give me some real Golden Era examples of piano based, down and dirty sort of swing like this song, or like the people in it are dancing to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEEy615Jzg4&feature=channel_video_title

    Pencil Mustache

    You look very much like my great grandfather, almost eerily so. Even your choice in glasses is very similar:

    Pencil Mustache

    Indeed. There are some guys who, for whatever reason, look utterly different with a mustache than without. My grandfather grow a Flynn-esque mustache in his 40s and kept it until he died in his 50s, yet despite him being cleanshaven most of his life, and the majority of the existing photos of...

    Would like to find a hat like this:

    This is my dad in 1995 or 1996, wearing a fedora-ish style hat. It's not a classic fedora nor is it a hipsterish fedora (given he was wearing it in '95 as a middle aged man, long before hipsters thought of wearing hats. It also is not the same style as hipster fedoras). I'd love to find it or...
