Would anyone be interested in a pair of blue-grey tweed (wool?) knickers,..size 40-42 waist? I took a look at them today and realized, wow now these i wont be able to take in for myself!! Look to date back to the mid 1930s?
Well,..this is the "Golden Era" section of the board,...1930s-40s. So the discussion (from the section's title) is geared as specifically towards that time frame.
I believe that's what several are trying to express. I'm not sure, but there may be a later timeline section of the FL regarding...
Sounds great really.
Sadly, there is no one closer than a 20 mile radius all that close to me that carries this line of linoleum,....and I couldnt even get a hold of the place that DID carry it! There's two places not far from me, but they only sell wholesale to construction companies...
Hey, I remember seeing you! Nice setup, great idea! I told my wife it was about time that someone started showing more home front themes that played a part during the war. There's so much that is overlooked with living history and the WWII era and either not represented, or ill-represented ad...
Yes, I actually do agree with you,...classy, not trashy,..that's why there were brothels. All in all, its more of a turn on to see a gorgeous woman, with a silk dress, hair all dolled up ala garbo, and so on,...THAT IS HOT!!!! yeah skin sells, and that's all nice, but less is not necessarily...
Today,....I like to say, I'm "Tom-Joad'n it" today....a bit o' the depression/1930s blue collar look. Steinbeck and Woody Guthrie would be proud!
Red Kap overalls (since 1923), collarless shirt, black socks, vintage brown shoes and brown tweed newsboy cap. Wildroot mixed with Black & White...
Well, its up there now in price!! Yo ahve to ask yourself,..what do the people in the town think about this??
Seriously though,...what I want to know is,....do these gals come with the auction?? I mean they ARE pictured in the auction and all!!:D
...or maybe that's just the way they look...
Aw guys this is a great thread!!
I know of two pairs of original late 30s knickers sitting in tupperware container at a friend's vintage shop,...I have to head towards their today anyway,....maybe I'll pick them up if the size is right??!!
I'm a Union Boilermaker by trade,...a Boilermaker/Welder. In our trade seal, it is listed, "Boilermakers, Iron-Ship Builders, Blacksmiths, Forgers & Helpers"
Through history, we've helped out in every major war. WWII saw us building locomotives, building, boilers, ships, etc. So I got ya...

Hey, not sure how many know this but a really cool old bar seems to be ,..GONE?? Chumley's,....we went there and there was construction scaffold outside, and the front was boarded up...
Thanks for your interest. Yes, I've been going for the last four years, was a member of the 29th Inf Div Living History Group for about 5 yrs or more...still good friends with them all, still a part of the group, but inactive right now.
As far as the people who put on that specific Home...
Yeah I tracked down some local retailers of the stuff,...gonna call them tomoarrow to see if i can get some samples,..hope the stuff's not too pricey??!![huh]
If I recall correctly, yes, its actually was an old Jewish Synagoge. Yep, that's it. My wife said she hit it last week, said there's NOTHING in there as far as anything new since we were last there 4 years ago!!!![huh] Prices on the few items that were interesting were STILL rediculously...
Hey thanks for the heads up the sights. Yeah I'm thinking much earlier than 15 minutes,..I dont know why I picked that number!!??:rolleyes:
