I’ve gone through the thread and attempted some much needed clean up.

We are aware banned members frequently try to re-enter under and new name. It does not take these guys very long from showing their true colors and begin to stir the pot. It may take a day or so but we always catch up and show ‘em the door.

If you spot an obvious troublemaker it’s a good idea to not engage them.

Fascinating interview! Himel details the origins and evolution of the vintage clothing industry. He talks about the details of his materials and manufacturing process. He credits John Chapman and @Dinerman.

Ps: Butte, I updated my signature . . . thanks for the epic quote!

AMAZING interview. I've learnt a lot about Himel and about the history of vintage fashion collectors.

Nice to see he credited a lot of people including Clutch Magazine. I also liked the story about Shinki leather tannery.
