    Vintage Eyeglasses

    That's good to know. I have had a lot of trouble getting green lenses. Many docs think of grey-green or G15 when you really want true green.

    Vintage Eyeglasses

    I think most people go for black/silver. I bet yours are very stunning. I am glad to hear you are happy with them. Interesting point about the lens size. I love the "full coverage" of mine. When I wear my modern/small lenses, I often look above or below the lenses by accident. To glance...

    Stingy 1930s

    True Dinerman. But 50's hats were neither high nor straight sided. So you won't see the reverse taper.

    Stingy 1930s

    Notice the hat on the left has a noticeably shorter crown. The hat on the right also has some taper to it. Compare it to the tall, straight sided crown of the 30's example. No doubt that brims grew in the 30s and that there is some similarity to the early 30s and 50s hats. However there are...

    I am 5'10" 200 lbs. This is a Large, Long. Typically I wouldn't wear a long size, but I think this one fits me well. You can see it goes a bit over my belt. If I got a regular large, I think it would hit right at my belt. I have been riding with this jacket and I think the length is just right.

    A Panama Hat worthy of FDR

    Somebody put a lot of time and skill into that hat in order for it to be worn, not to sit on a collector's shelf. Do it justice - block it and enjoy it.

    Summer storage of felt hats

    I think it's time to put my felt hats in their boxes to store them away for the warmer months. What do you guys do to ward off moths? I've lost some lesser worn clothes to moths, so I am very afraid of them. Sure there are old fashioned moth balls, but I really don't want my hats to smell...

    Milan Mania

    I was very inspired by Lefty's so I asked his permission to order one with the same ribbon. He kindly obliged, so I ordered one several weeks ago. It just came today. I got the same ribbon as Lefty, but Graham put a little twist on it so it's not exactly the same. I'll get some pics up soon.

    I truly appreciate the advice. I am a bit disappointed to hear this. I was hoping that as a supplier of police jackets that this would be more adequate for riding. However I was just thinking of using it as a stop gap until I get the funds for a Vanson. Lucky for me the Vanson showroom is in...
