    Ah...that's the relatively embarrassing part. $1 each for the four single issues and $2 for the two copies that were bound together (they were from 1956). So, a total of $6. The fine lady to whom I gave the money was the gallery's archivist and librarian...the one who had selected all the...

    As a big fan of the Blackadder series, I'm in the same boat. Really can't watch House.

    Thanks. The nearby city that is the location for the gallery is a cultural wasteland...the gallery is far, far, far beyond the place. I question whether there is an art student nearby! A terrific gallery in a questionable location. Really out of place. My wife and I were pretty well the...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Walking Dead. Quite the guy, the governor. Gotta figure he'll get his eventually. Enjoying the Michonne character, though.

    They can follow orders, too (Dead Snow).

    And I didn't even tell you what I paid! That would make you sick, MB!

    Your favorite toys as a kid?

    I think I've posted here before but it won't hurt to do it again! These guys... Especially these guys... And military Dinky's. Years ago, when my parents still lived in the same house, I helped my mother do some gardening and unearthed my old Dinky Saracen APC. Pretty...

    What Are You Reading

    Richard III. Haven't read Shakespeare since high school english courses totally alienated me from this writer. Quite entertaining when you don't have to write a report or analyze anything! Makes me feel like finding my copy of Josephine Tey's A Daughter of Time.

    Black Friday!

    Some retailers up here have started pushing 'Black Friday' sales, primarily to cash in on the cross-border shopping crowd. Pretty irritating. No thanks.

    An art gallery in my region recently weeded its library and archives. It held a book sale to raise funds, using the discarded material. I came away with the first four issues of Verve magazine (and two later issues). I’d never heard of this journal before but they looked interesting so home...

    My grey Birkdale seemed to please my carved long-eared owl.

    How Many Fedoras did you see today?

    Only two today: one hipster stingy and one wider brimmed wool felt. My wife looked at the wool felt one and then looked at mine. She commented "your's is nicer". Ah...no kidding! Mine was a sovereign quality Stetson!

    Thanks Randall and Mike. The glasses are just cheap knock-offs, I believe. (They're in the car, I think!)

    Thanks, Manfred. The ribbon came from the Bailey western hat that I converted to a fedora. I showed that one a few postings back.

    The Conversion Corral

    This one was an easy conversion...no brim trimming, just a lot of steam and the application of an iron. Oh, and a hat band change. I found this great condition Akubra Down Under at a local thrift store: After some steam, etc., it became more of a city hat. I've rebashed a few Akubras...
