Let's hope so, the penny was pretty as well.

Glad it went to you, so that you can stop hating me for my tweed!

 

[Tomasso]

.This one is coming to me. Late 1930s, most probably.

It's lovely but wouldn't it be too warm for your environs? I couldn't wear that until the temp dropped into the 50's.

Ah, but it's perfect for certain Fall/Winter/Spring evenings here. Concerts, the theatre, restaurants, nightclubs, bars. Usually without the waistcoat.

Evenings i guess, but I thought he bought it because he wanted to start cultivating a college professor look. perhaps we can find him a nice tweed sportcoat with patches on the elbows, and a pipe.

Yeah, Doran; Tomasso is right. Ahem , but up here in the North woods, I could wear it eight months out of the year.

Seriously, Congratulations Doran :eusa_clap that is one beautiful suit. I have been looking for one like that for years.

Suit fit photos

I finally got around to taking some photos of me in my suit, for fit critique. I tooks photos of me in just shirt/tie and pants; shirt/tie, pants, and vest; shirt/tie, pants, vest, and jacket; and shirt/tie, pants, and jacket.

(Photos quality is bad and grainy because I didn't realize my ISO was set to 800. shakeshead )

Did you buy that collared vest on ebay from reetpleatsf? it looks like one I sold, and I seem to remember it going to utah, which surprised me, as I assumed it would be going to england. but maybe I am mistaken

No, the whole thing (shirt, tie, pants, vest, and jacket) is from Macy's.

That would have fit me. Darn it.
I want to see that one some time soon.

You can say that again. I am freezing here right now. That tweed suit would be great. :eusa_clap

 

[Marc Chevalier]

Remind me not to post anything good on ebay right now.

Okay. Here's another reminder: http://cgi.ebay.com/VTG-40S-GANGSTE...ptZVintage_Men_s_Clothing?hash=item1c0f302042

And another reminder why we have a no live auction posting rule. Someone got a decent deal. It could have been a college guy or someone on a limited budget. More power to them if they can find it on the cheap. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
