family members on the "wrong" side
Funny story: When Operation Paperclip Scientists were re-stationed in Huntsville in the 1950s many became community leaders. At a School Board meeting somebody asked one of the Germans about his war service and he stated that "He was a veteran too!" because of his Luftwaffe Service. He was... -

Goodwill buys
Hit the goodwill in town; it's been a goldmine of stuff. Passed on a few jackets but picked up a Towncraft suit, "Executive" branded and made by Hart, Shaffer, Marx in the late 1990s. $10! The Salvation Army in town was good, but has lately been afflicted with what I call the "special... -

"Aviator" shirts
Looks like the German Panzer Uniform. Which was designed from Alpine Skiing clothing of the period. Going from that, the design makes sense. I REALLY love the Bob Hope cartoon though.- Trotsky

FS:Penny's Flannel Jac-Shirt
Hi all, have a very nice JC Penny "Towncraft" Jac-shirt I bought. It's tagged "XL" but fits more like a modern Large. (It barely fits me :( ...) I would say 1960s or 50s vintage, perfect condition and it has the Small Navy Anchor Buttons (Chief's Buttons?) on it. Very heavy flannel wool...- Trotsky

The Adventurer's Gear Thread
I still have this, I just saw your post! I see you are in the UK, and I will warn you: shipping will be an absolute bear. I have been aiming to get a British Army Bergen for years and shipping from the UK to the US on these babies is HIGH. However, I am willing, if you are.- Trotsky

Belted J. Peterman D/B Tweed Norfolk Jacket
Sorry for the late reply, but the end of the month has seen me with too much I need to pay and too little to play with. If you still have this wonderful jacket after everything has been paid mid-next month, I hopefully will be able to pull the trigger then. Thank you very much for holding it...- Trotsky

I'm horrified.
Ugh. This kind of stuff makes me a little sick inside. There is one huge reason I hate Ebay and people solely out to make a buck: they will separate something purely for the money. At the salvation army I saw an USAAF Officer's jacket: Hart, Shaffer, Marx branded. Had his "US" Lapel Insignia... -

Jerry Lee's Crusher is supposed to be his own design, nothing like any other one out there. I do not own one, but they look really good. -

What leather conditioner do you use?

ID this coat?
Nice find. I picked one up years ago for $8 from a surplus store, brand new never issued.
