Perfect condition. Super price.

Both great fonts on cases.

No worries. It turned out to be a true size 40 R. The right size for me, but by no means large (unfortunately).

.

Great. The usual eBay measuring system.

First pic with vintage hat

Then with Federation IV

Last of my favorite shot

Needs little waist tailoring to fit fabulously but I love it already

Hi, I was wondering if there is a specific name for this exact style of hat. This looks to be exactly what I'm looking for. I have a Fedora, but am just not wild on the overall shape or brim size, and this is more what I'm looking for. Thanks!

I just brought home this jacket (and that ascot, my first ever), for a perfect price of 3 USD:

The jacket was made by OP Prostejov, it´s wool-polyesther blend, well cut, so I guess it can be from half 60´s. The lapels look very vintagey though. The only problem is that the jacket may look a bit short, but it´s my size and it looks that way only if buttoned, so...

One question - we all know that the last button shall be left undone, but what if the jacket has only one button? More generally, how common it is to see a jacket with only one button?

Im afraid thats a 1970s jacket or later, as it has the washing symbols below the brand name tag, as this became a requirement of clothing made past 1971. Nice fabric though.

For only thirty dollars I recently aquired this little beauty:

But what may seem to be just a plain unassuming umbrella is in fact...

A lethal weapon.

I love it. Please keep us informed of your adventures with it against the hooligans of the world; and if you have none, make some up for us.

Inspired by Feraud, I too have treated myself to a pair of white bucks. Won these on eBay a couple of days ago for $20. Shipping added $15 to the price, but still not a bad deal. Seller said they're in like new condition with the original box. We'll see when they get here...

 

[Feraud]

Nice shoe Warbaby!
Since I purchased my bucs I wear them a lot on the weekend. They make as nice a casual shoe as they do a dress up item.
Enjoy 'em.

Great outfit...very authentic ...you could sit on the porch after doing all your yard chores....or head off to the Hungry Mile/labour exchange in search of a bit of work...or go mend the Rabbit Proof Fence for a few shillings a week (see my avatar pic)!

Thanks! I was thinking the same thing haha! Instead having a shotgun in my lap to ward off squatters.

My white bucks arrived today and they are, indeed, Canadian Navy shoes. Also pleased to find that they're not "like new", they ARE brand new and unworn. Whoopee!
