    The Adventurer's Gear Thread

    Love this thread. :) I found a book called "Outdoor Life Cyclopedia" at a used book sale, printing date 1945, published by Outdoor Life. There's plenty of information on fishing, shooting, hunting, dog training, camping, tips on pack train expeditions (!), building a log cabin, and...camping...

    Calling Cards (name cards, not phone cards)

    As I'll be graduating soon and hunting for a job, I plan on getting some cards from an online place like VistaPrint. I can put my name and contact info there, and showcase my design skills at the same time. :) Because pulling out a lime green index card to write your name on isn't terribly...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hello all! I've been a lurker for ages, and decided it was time to join. Beyond the Golden Era and 1920s-40s vintage, I'm also interested in historical costume and apparel design (my major). Right now, I'm working on enlarging my vintage and vintage-inspired wardrobe, and feeding my growing...
