    The Dutch perfected cheese making years ago, reason enough to love them.

    Show us your vintage home!

    HarpPlayerGene, Your house had its own charming appeal in the 1890's. However its current look is also pleasant, and no doubt more up to modern codes as well as easier to maintain. It certainly is roomier. I wish I had photos of my home in the 1890's to compare with today.

    All Things Khaki - Clothing the Vintage Adventurer

    I believe I recall seeing Edward's China photos in khaki gear(or something similar). I have a question about stain resistant treatment for khaki garments. Is there any product which does a good job and does not need frequent re-treatment?

    A Family At War

    When "A Family at War" ran in the USA back in the mid '70s I made sure to not miss an episode. My new bride at the time became annoyed at times when I chose to forgo other activities to keep up with the saga. Fortunately it did no permanent damage to our relationship.:D

    Historical Debate Regarding the WWII

    Sadly, tyranny can arise anywhere that humanism becomes the ultimate philosophy. If ALL civilizations would simply respect each others' rights to exist, having been created equal, everyone would think twice before trying to impose any particular system on others. The motto "live and let live"...

    Any modelers on Fedora Lounge?

    Warbaby, you must have excellent eyesight to work with Z scale. Even N scale gets too blurry for older model RR fans. HO is as small as I can go nowadays(being over 50).

    J. Peterman A1

    It looks like a well made jacket. As said previously, not an A1, but if you like it and are not concerned about historical accuracy then go for it. The price looks quite reasonable. What have you got to lose if you are not using it for re-enacting purposes? Nothing.

    Last evening it was cool enough to need my A2 for a bicycle ride, along with gloves and an insulated hat.

    Why & when do we love the A-2 & other leather jackets?

    Apparently some people simply look at a design and decide it is not very appealing to them. That is why there are so many different styles of leather jackets. History students/followers can look beyond a particular jacket's shortcomings and appreciate it for what it symbolizes. The A-2 served...

    family members on the "wrong" side

    My cousin married a man who emmigrated from Germany in the early 1950's. He had been in the Hitler Youth until towards the end of the war when he was old enough to enlist in the Kriegsmarine. No one in our family has ever had a problem with his background. My father, who served in the USAAF...

    Pinup Art

    I am not a jacket collector, Shooter. It just isn't in my budget. I have only 4 leather coats, one of them an A2 repro. I do enjoy looking at any flight jacket collections.
