    Here is another Grenville tie...this one is interesting because it is a "Four-way" tie, both ends are the same size, but there are 4 different patterns, so you get four ties in one

    Calendar Plates I was cruising the thrift store the other day and for some reason I looked through a stack of those souvenir, collector plates. Usually they are from some town, state or tourist attraction...and most of them were, except these two. These are advertising, calendar plates...

    Can this hat be saved? Hey guys..I was in a thrift store and spotted this Boater...surprisingly it was the real thing. Unfortunately it has an 'issue'. The brim is bent upwards in one spot.. My guess is it sat in a closet for years, improperly stored and somehow it changed shape...

    I know this doesnt belong in this thread but I thought I would post it anyways. Also found this pair of vintage Swiss ski pants in the same thrift store. I suspect they belonged to the same fellow that owned the above suits, as it seems to be the same vintage and size. Kinda cool
