Ah. Where to start? The brilliant illustrations continue.
Thanks for the Thin Man images. In addition to the clothes, I love the pencil-thin mustache. That’s not something you see anymore. Wish I could pull that off.
What is with those chair-on-a-Walking-stick things? They look ridiculous and unstable as hell. Glad they went the way of the dodo bird. Just no.
1941. Even though the U.S. is not in the war yet, the mood seems to be shifting. I see that uniforms are featured in both April and May. Imagine a modern men’s magazine displaying uniforms as a fashion statement. Ha! Never happen. In May I did find it interesting that the discerning man could legitimately get his perfectly tailored uniforms from Brooks Brothers. Ha again! When I was in the army, my uniforms (even the dress uniform) were strictly supplied by Uncle Sam. Can West Pointers still opt for BB uniforms, I wonder?
