    Personal Heat

    About 3 years ago I was in the market for a nice knife to carry. I've always carried a pocket knife as I grew up on a farm and it was needed. So my left pocket has always had one... But I wanted a bit bigger knife. I looked at all the new lockbacks, many names I've never heard of as they...

    1947 Levis help

    What finish are you refering to? I thought they were just denim? I've dryed mine and they're still really dark blue. I thought the vintage levis used a different denim then the current levis and it is that denim that makes a real pair look like a real pair. I'm not sure I can go but a...

    Indy jacket for 40K

    If perhaps this was the original indy jacket and there was just one in the world and he died while wearing it, and it was signed by ford and spielberg and it was solid gold and... well you get my point. They probably had 5 or so jacket just for this film... You could have bought a horse farm...

    1947 Levis help

    I just check my 55's and 47's and both were made in San Fran... 555 on button. I don't like any of the new vintage levis they're offering this year.. They're all beat up. Both of mine were used but only one or two wash. And enough leg room to roll them up to show off the redline...

    1947 Levis help

    Thanks! The reason I was asking is I have a pair of the 55's without a tag but I know they're real and the 47's did have a tag but I bought them on ebay. I actually like the 47's more than the 55's. I don't have the earlier pairs but I'm thinking about the 201's as I've also heard very...

    Vintage Eyeglasses

    Vintage Eye Glasses I have an old pair of Windsor eyeglasses that I picked up in a thrift shop a few years ago and have worn them ever since... They're actually Winsor brand too. The problem is someone at some time had resodered part of the nose piece and now it's a little off but I"m use to...

    Space Shuttle.

    I haven't really seen any great so far from the space shuttles? Or did I miss something? Seems the only thing they do well is drop off spy satelights or GPS for military bombings... Again.. did I miss something they did for the greater good of mankind? I like space, the moon all...

    Time for a new do?

    Well, I've been thinking of a new hairdo.. the only problem is I'm have hair that looks a lot like david letterman. There's not a whole lot you can do with it. I want a late 30's 40's look.. Can you think of any examples of people to show (most likely movie stars) with a similar folicle...

    Better fit

    I've had a few Aero A2's through the years... currently an anniversary in jerky horse which I love. I find that zipped all the way up is fine if I don't have collar snapped but if it is it rubs my neck wrong... I also have an Aero B-10 which has the high arm holes and it really fits like a...

    WWII Boots - Service, Jump, etc.

    If memory serves me.. the buckle type boot like that was new for 1943 and replaced the lower cut boots and spats... for the regular army. Paratroopers of course wore the coravan boot in brown and after the war it was changed to the black we know today.
