    The Truth About Where Your Donated Clothes Go

    So I shouldn't feel bad about donating my worn out, torn and stained stuff? I have a heap of them that I've been thinking about dropping off.

    1946 Time Article on Stetson

    Interesting article, thanks! I sometimes see eBay auctions for hats that say "Mallory by Stetson." How long did they do that?

    RIP: GERALD FORD

    Those of us of a certain age remember President Ford taking a spill on the steps of Air Force One, and that spawned the parodies. Years later I read that he had had a "trick knee" from his football days, and if he hadn't been is such fine shape, that fall could have seriously injured or even...

    SS France - SS Norway - SS... Blue Lady???

    The French liner SS France entered service in 1961, so she's not technically a Golden Era liner, but as there are steamship enthusiasts here, I pass along this link, along with a "What the...?" http://www.ssmaritime.com/newsupdates.htm#_SS_Norway,_ex It seems the former SS France, which...

    The Duke's wardrobe up for auction

    Oh, that Duke. Here I was thinking "Hey, maybe one of John Wayne's suits might fit me!" lol

    The Good German

    It was certainly well done, albeit with a few gratuitous sex scenes (or maybe just one) that could have been left out. The profanity, as in most movies today, is such that it becomes part of the background noise. I always think it has more impact if used sparingly, like Rhett's "Frankly, my...

    Stetson Stratoliner as art

    I'd love to find one in sky blue, as that seems appropriate for a hat with an aviation theme.

    What would you wear?

    I wore top hat and tails to my company Christmas party. I work at a TV studio in Glendale. Much of what we consider "Hollywood" actually occurs in the city of Burbank, and Glendale just to the East gets the overflow, so it's still under that "Hollywood" aura. My aim was to have fun and make...

    Geatest designs of WWII

    Off-topic, but you've just described the Gee Bee, which appeals to me because it's just the biggest engine the Granville Brothers could get their hands on, with just enough structure for a wing, tail, landing gear and a place for the pilot to sit. Back on topic, and talking about functional...

    Senator back in 2 3/8"

    Tilt it back a little, snap the brim down a little more in front, and I think you'd be right on the money. Funny, my sage green Resistol in my avatar picture also has a 2-3/8" brim, and it's about as "stingy" as I want to go. Then again, I wore a top hat and tails to my company Christmas...

    The quality of a suit

    Yeah, I've heard that, and it's horse, well, stuff. My modern cheap jackets have huge armholes and are tight around my biceps, and I ain't no Mr. Universe. lol

    Knox Twenty - or is it?

    It's sure interesting, and it does have the "character" my more pristine hats lack. I guess "Arrow" (the larger sticker) is the company that renovated the hat. I didn't even see the smaller reorder tag until I started taking pictures, and I couldn't see much of anything on that with the naked...
