    women of the Golden era from the 1920's mug shots

    Lizzie, you could add this to your "Personal List of Good Things That Post-Date 1959." Or was it begun before '59?

    Vintage Polo Shirts

    Agreed. Maybe very early '60s. That particular style of polo shirt has been on the market, practically unchanged, since the 1930s.

    I'd say 70% Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. and 30% Gene Kelly.

    Show Us Vintage GERMAN Suits

    Men's American 'sack' suit jackets in 1913 still had a long, boxy cut, stiff pressed (not rolled) lapels, and wide sleeves. Trousers were wide at the thigh and narrow at the cuff. By 1919, suit jackets were a bit shorter and had a wasp waist, rolled lapels, and narrow sleeves. Trousers were...

    Show us your TIES

    If it's in excellent condition (and if your auction's placement, title and description mimic those of the $102.50 Oviatt tie auction), then IMO you could get over $50 for it. Not $100, I reckon, since vintage thin '50s ties don't fetch as much cash on eBay as the wider '40s ties do.

    What are you wearing today??

    There's a reason. More and more, the most active and enthusiastic Loungers in the (non-hat, non-leather) menswear threads are not American: they're European and Australian. By and large, the American Loungers have left, or they just stay quieter.

    Show Us Vintage GERMAN Suits

    This one should be purchased immediately by anyone interested in early 20th century New York's 'pantheon' of tailors. "Schanz" was considered one of the greatest (and one of the most expensive) East Coast merchant tailors, on a par with "Wetzel", "Twyeffort", and "Stadler & Stadler". Judging...

    1930's Flecked Tweed Sportcoat

    . Actually, late '20s, not '30s. Note the alpaca mohair partial lining.
