    Is this a leather jacket?

    I know this a bit past the Golden Era, but it's kind of surprising to see my grandmother wearing what looks like a leather jacket: http://img535.imageshack.us/img535/4536/91191248389690458125091.jpg

    Vintage Eyeglasses

    Bought myself a pair of Rayban Clubmaster aka Browline (think Jim Marrison or Malcom X) frames today. They were sunglasses but I had them converted into plain eyeglasses.

    Vintage Eyeglasses

    These aren't vintage (well, they do date from the early-mid 90s, but still) but I wanted to get a pair like them and was wondering if anyone knew what kind they are?

    The Misfits (1961)

    Well in Clark's case, it wasn't so much that he was sickly as it was that he went on a crash diet to film The Misfits. He'd gained a bit of weight by the late '50s, he wasn't fat by any means but had filled out, and wanted to be in good shape for The Misfits. If you look at his mid-late 50s...

    The Misfits (1961)

    Does anyone else love the film "The Misfits", starring Gable and Marilyn Monroe? It was released in 1961 and it is both of their last films--Gable worked himself to death on the film, doing his own, intense stunts at age 59 after years of abusing his body--and Monroe died in 1962 before she...

    Good late 50s-mid 60s fedora/stingy brim films?

    What are some good films produced between around 1956 and 1964 that feature either a main character wearing a fedora or stingy brim, or a lot of fedoras in general? I'm thinking sort of the Man in the Gray Flannel Suit Kennedy, Mad Men era-but films actually produced in the period. Sort of like...

    What kind of camera is this?

    In the hands of the man on the bottom right, it looks like a movie camera, but I could be wrong and it could just be a photo camera. The picture dates from 1941 or 1942.

    Which Presidents Wore Hats>?

    That picture is August 1972. The picture in the cowboy hat is September 1972. He greased it down or pulled it into a ponytail. The picture above is from the funeral of Senator Carl Hayden, who died in January 1972. As you can see, from all appearances, LBJ's hair is short. For more formal...

    Need help finding some hats

    Modern hat sellers wouldn't sell a hat with a high crown? And what do you mean it's ''not tapered''? I'm either a 6 7/8 or 7.
