Even though at my age all these 1930s guys with mustaches are probably younger than me, they always appear to be much older and wiser than I am. I'll probably never get over that.

Oh, they also appear thinner than me and have more hair. Sigh.

WOW !
I lived on Mulberry St as a infant & later moved to Orchard & Rivington about 7 short blocks away & then on Pitt st & Rivington into these 21 story projects a block from Delancy st.....those tenements were a Trip. The projects were nice & new 21 story giants.
I found this cool link on the area http://theselvedgeyard.wordpress.co...nd-to-think-that-i-saw-it-on-mulberry-street/
Sure do like sunny California now !
Miss shopping on Orchard St. Some of the best Scores ever & we never knew we had it that good...WE wore Vintage as kids because we were poor & the stuff was good cool stuff... geez we did not have a idea that old would be collectable cool.

The print of this pic in The Selvedge Yard is way better than the one I posted. Great info there, too.
