This Stuff Isn't Rare - Why So Expensive?
Everything finds a way to rise though. Ebay has a lot more people looking its merchandise over than any shop or expo ever had access to, and all it takes is two or three mad collectors to send prices skyrocketing. Throw in an enthusiastic neophyte with deep pockets and those Dali ties are...- jake_fink

Caps or fedoras?Both??
That sale made me more furious than most. You wouldn't have had a chance if you did bid. One vendor (with whom you are familiar) bought them all and may just give us a chance to buy them again - creating a situation where those who did bid are effectively bidding against themselves (since higher... -

Road to Perdition?1930's era films
Last Exit to Brooklyn Hubert Selby was a one of a kind underrated American master. His books are all devestating, powerful work. Darren Aronofsky made Requium For a Dream based on another of Sleby's works. Last Exit... was an extraordinary film, it looked great, managed to account for much...- jake_fink

Depression-Era Hat Invoices
I don't know how I missed this when it was posted, but wow, this is just the type of thing that floats my boat. Fascinating stuff. Documentary evidence is indeed loveable. So, Brad, when are you writing your book? -
Dobbs 15 RIP
I don't know if this is worth posting and mods should feel free to delete (as they feel free to do in any case) should it be a problem. Winter is coming and I've been thinking about getting a new beater for the cold wet weather ahead. I've been thinking of various Akubras and, though I've had... -
My Camp Draft arrived !
The campdraft is a good looking hat. It would be cool in one of the special order/"custom" colours Akubra offers, like blue grass green or navy. You've given me soemthing to think about as gift giving (and getting) season creeps up. ;) -
Curse like an actor!?
Another "bad language" thread only this time it's in The Moving Picture forum because *shock* *horror* movie stars swore in the good old days. Puh-leeze. :rolleyes:- jake_fink

STRATOLINER
What's so strange? He wanted it, you wanted it more, you win again. Nothing strange that I can see. [huh] -
Akubra CEO
Send them an email. Tell them what size you are looking for. The wait isn't always as long as three months. They're good about returning messages etc. -
Comic Art Fans take note:
This is for all those (those few) out there who are into comic strips of the Golden Era (That be you JM Stovall!) Leonard Starr's finest creation Mary Perkins On Stage is being collected in great looking volumes. Eery panel is a feast for the eyes. He was a master equally of...- jake_fink

Happy Birthday Daisy Buchanan!
Mellow is a perfect way to enjoy a birthday. Though, I'm sure the comic antics of Hem and Bollie will also keep you smiling. :cheers1:- jake_fink

Beware this ebaYer
Ah! Well, that's different. At the very least you should be reimbursed the difference between priority (which your package clearly was not to her) and regular post. If you pay for two day shipping, then you should get as close to two day shipping as is possible. -

Why frightened of my fedora?
lol I wasn't suggesting that it STANK, just that there might be a "scent" that the baby was reacting to. BTW. I love your avatar and had it lined up to use myself someday. -
Beware this ebaYer
So the item was nice, but you had to wait almost two weeks for it? That's it? That wouldn't bother me at all. It hardly warrants a warning, let alone any sadness. -
Jake Gittes: Style Icon
That's a great shot. I was going to do another series of grabs from The Natural because in that film Robert Duvall and Darren MacGavin are also (my personal) style icons. -
Why frightened of my fedora?
Maybe it smells. Give it a sniff. Baby noses (and dog noses) are a lot more powerful than adult human noses. Seriously. -
