    thinking of a person who never saw you...

    A mother-daughter pair (20/40 y.o., I'd guess) at a Glenn Miller Orchestra concert about 4 years ago, coordinated in the smartest on-spot 30s/40s brown dresses, gloves & hats, and hairdo's you ever saw, similar to: first time I'd ever seen anyone wearing vintage outside a 40s movie; made me...

    Golden Era Landscaping

    I was thinking the exact same thing, was even going to surf ebay soon for vintage 30s-40s landscaping books, looking forward to the responses. :offtopic: The main university near I grew up, Duke University (Glenn Miller roots for the Duke Blue Devils in one of his broadcasts :-) , has a...

    Life Looked Better In Black and White

    i like puppies :) (reminds me of a recent visit to a casual friend's house: when asked my favorite classic movies, I started with "It's a Wonderful Life"; he said "Oh, you liked that movie? Oh... I see." lol at that point I was having fun, and didn't tell him my next 2 faves, Ernest...

    What Are Your Favorite VINTAGE Song Lyrics?

    Cool :) You probably do, but incase, if you don't have much Dorsey, here's the best / most representative compilation of his currently on Amazon; a CD re-release of a 70's 2-LP reissue set, "This Is Tommy Dorsey, vol. 1" - His truly Greatest original 30s-40s recordings. (Dorsey & Ellington are...

    What are your unreleased dvd wants?

    AH, Now I see, it IS in print; I'd been ignoring that Amazon search result since the first stars listed were other than Burt Lancaster or Ava Gardner... Thanks Jake :eusa_clap

    Let's See Your Electric Trains!

    I'm with Mr. Senator; pics please. CharlieH, like that "downtown nighttime noir" look. Hungate's is the big hobby shop chain in this area; I remember growing up, they always had a knock-out multi-layered 2-train window display with a tunnel in the local mall, w/ a village, trees (that...

    Television Mom & Dad?

    Growing up: The Cosby Show. More recently, I'd say, the TV dad who most closely represented the dads in my neighborhood who didn't hesitate helping raise any neighborhood kids when any of us needed a little raising: Unequivocally... (only, a little less like the cleaned-up TV show, and a...

    What are your unreleased dvd wants?

    Great choices, everyone. Would love to replace these VHSes with DVDs: "(Ernest Hemingway's) THE KILLERS", 1946, Burt Lancaster, Ava Gardner - Hit men kill an unresisting victim, and investigator Reardon uncovers his past involvement with beautiful, deadly Kitty Collins...

    Maltese Falcon Replica - Advice Needed!

    "Sons of the Desert", as in Laurel & Hardy? Yes, they do make very nice inlaid boxes from Egypt, my neighbor has them around his home. Speaking of which, he gave me the items he had his relative send back from a mom & pop shop in Egypt for me: not just a Sphynx, but the great pyramids - cool...

    What Are Your Favorite VINTAGE Song Lyrics?

    . Great choices, Rosie & All! Mine: (a sure cure for a binge of too much cynical whiney indie rock lol) MP3: "Sunny Side of the Street" - Tommy Dorsey (there IS a vocal in there, at the very end) Grab your coat, Don't forget your hat But leave your worries, leave them on the doorstep...

    "Bringing Up Baby"

    This was the big movie that turned me on to the 1930's-40's movies in high school & a general interest in the era; before that, just music. Taped it off AMC & watched it I don't know how many times; was MAD about Ms Hepburn...

    R&B

    I strongly second this one; the best compilation I've ever heard of late 40s-early 50s r&b (and I've bought a few). Also, if you like the 40s/50s instrumental honking & squawking tenor sax stuff, you MUST get "Honkers & Bar Walkers, Vol. 1" (Delmark), while still in print...

    records.

    Hi David, Wish I could offer you the service, but time is just so tight. But I'm sure your best bet to find someone (if you don't want to do it yourself, and like rongoms said, it can be tiresome) is you should post your request to the following public internet newsgroup of hobbyists...
