    Hollywood Jackets

    This is one of those places that TRULY does not want to sell. They gave a good supply of inventory that I first saw about 12 years ago! The sad thing is...they have the best supply in town, and a lot in my size.

    Hollywood Jackets

    It's not a two-tone...and this is a shop where you CANNOT talk the price down. A bunch off cool stuff, but they have shown no interest in actually selling any of it.

    Finally got to see The Maltese Falcon...

    The Maltese Falcoln has long been my favorite film and favorite book of all time. It's got just the right touches of drama, suspense, and ethics all with an exotic flair.

    Hollywood Jackets

    There's a belted Hollywood jacket at a shop in town. Just my size, but stains on the front and...$385!!!

    Hollywood Jackets

    Man, this thread is right up my alley. Flat-top, those are too cool! Here's the one I've had for about 10 years. I wear it all the time. It seems real close to Root's. I don't recall where I got it...my brain works that way.

    "old fashioned" 3 piece suits

    Indy...It sounds like you may have the right idea going. I may be getting in touch with you soon. I've never bought a "new" vintage/repro suit before. What I see on your website may warrent a try.

    The Swing Movement

    Amen...to the real genuine bands! Around these parts we were the anti-Cherry Poppin' Daddies. We started as a jump blues band before the '90s swing movement...benefitted greatly from the movement...and remained true to the music after the movement. More than anything, the '90s were fun! On...

    THE DERBY memories

    It's sad to hear what has happened. Over the years I got to see how the scene changed...and it was not for the better, as far as I'm concerned. I've performed jump blues since about '91 and had a band with a bit of a following throughout the '90s. When we started there was no "scene" to...

    Cooking in the Golden Era

    I have the 1946 "Trader Vic's Book of Food & Drink." I doubt the book changed much over the years. The bulk of my collection consists of 1950s barbeque books. There are a lot of great photos of dad looking good standing over his steak & mom serving lemonade in high heels.

    Remove your hat?

    I can't go for the argument that says it's okay to have bad manners if others do too. It is disrespectful and poor taste to wear a hat while dining at any sit-down restaurant. I've come very close to walking up to some baseball hat wearing clown and removing it for him on more than one...

    Spectator Shoes

    I've been lurking for over a year...but now it's time for my first input. A few years ago I found 2 pair of Allen Edmonds at an estate sale. 2 pair...one black & white, one brown & white. My size & near mint condition. $1 each. Allen Edmonds is based here in Milwaukee, which may...
