    The Electric Friendship Generator

    A spoof on Facebook, in a retro setting. I think it's hilarious, and I'd love to have "computing machine" like that one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iROYzrm5SBM&feature=player_embedded

    1920's Radio Network

    Someone on the simpleliving.net forum shared this link: http://www.the1920snetwork.com/ It's an online vintage radio station. I haven't had a chance to explore it yet, but had never seen it listed here at the lounge. Has anyone else come across this, and what do you think? I usually...

    For You Victorian and Edwardian Lovers

    It goes a bit past what we define as the Golden Era, but I know many here are also lovers of all things Victorian and Edwardian (myself included!). Our friends across the pond no doubt already knew of these, but BBC presented two series a few years ago where two archaeologists and a historian...

    Elvgren Pinup Art - Model Photos

    Collection of models photographs used as the base work for some of Elvgren's pin up art. Cool to see! It's interesting to note that the ladies' bodies in the pin up art seems to be an almost unachievable standard, yet in many cases the art work didn't deviate all that much from the real...

    Recreate Hollywood Movie Costumes - Flickr

    I stumbled across this photo collection on Flickr where someone has put together "tutorials" on how to use modern fashions to recreate outfits from old Hollywood movies..... http://www.flickr.com/photos/49891657@N03/ If this was done by someone here on FL, my hat is off to you for putting...

    Care For Old 78's

    I recently acquired a 1949/50 Philco radio with turntable, along with some very old, beat up 78's. These records are without any kind of sleeves or covers, just the discs themselves that have been sitting on a basement shelf collecting dust and cobwebs over the years. Some of them have had...

    "Brand New" 1950's Home!

    I stumbled across this....it's a home for sale that was new construction in 1955, and has virtually never been lived in. If I was in the market for a new home and I lived there.....I'd be all over that! http://www.2204stephen.com./ The 50's is a little outside my aesthetic taste (I...

    A snapshot into the past

    I work at the University of Nebraska at Kearney (UNK), and just discovered the library has archived scanned images of almost 50 years worth of yearbooks, ranging in date from 1908 - 1980's. What's even better, is that those scanned images are available to look at online! (UNK began as "Kearney...

    Crown Stoves? Looking for Info...

    We have an old 24-inch, gas, split-level range that we think dates to the 1960's. The brand name on it says "Crown," and on the side there is a little metal tag that says "Custom Built by Crown for Mrs. XXXX." I've been trying to look up some information on this particular range with no...

    My first vintage purchase

    My first vintage furniture purchase! I found this waterfall-style vanity at an antique mall for $25.00, and promptly purchased it: (Please forgive the bluriness, our camera isn't that great) Bessie and Runty have given their approval of my purchase: Better look at detail (does that...
