I've been trying by sending him and lead or two, B! Heck, I'll have to dig through my stacks because at this point I might even have something lying around.

Welcome to the dark side, Gary. If you thought hats were bad for your bank account, well...

Nice, Ton. Does yours have the belt?

Somewhere in my closet there’s the belt. I don’t use it though. This is one of a very few vintage golden age jackets that actually fit!

This is the best situation to be in. Go to Amazon and buy this :

Get yourself some small jewelry ring and a hollow metal bead (Etsy). You can also find the beads as ball chain stoppers on Amazon
5 minutes later you have this:

I'm just back for a second visit at Bowen's invite. I have no intention of staying! It's far too dangerous.

You gents over in Hats are dangerous too. Guys buying walk-in bank safes to house 1000 hats lol. Impressive. Though we have a jacket guy or two with dedicated jacket wings in their homes.

Haha. Sounds familiar. Fortunately a bit easier to find the mark for the noggin than the upper body and arms. Once you find a handful of different hats that work for you GTFOutta there.

I need a cowboy hat. Schott rancher and pioneer vest.

“Twenty, twenty, twenty four hours a day. I want to be sueded…” LOL.

What size hat do you wear Ton?

Kuppenheimer Hollywood jacket for a night out anniversary dinner. My wife humors me and allows me to wear my vintage threads even tho she’s not a fan.

Also a quick quiet weekend getaway to Prescott AZ for a stay in the Hassayampa Inn built in 1927. Fantastic building restored to its glory days and in all its furnishings and trimmings.

Original elevator still in operation from 1927.

45 short years ago today.

Most our friends and family said it’ll never last. Fortunately the young outlaw cowboy in the pic quickly realized he had lucked out and married way above his level so grew up, manned up and settled down. So far so good.

Congratulations to you both. PS, tell your wife thanks for letting you wear that fine jacket! It looks great and so does she!

Congrats! Great post and you definitely lucked out.

Also, I may be the only person to say this, but thanks for the elevator pics. My boy is fascinated with them. Makes me go into most every building so he can take pics and videos. He will appreciate these in the AM. He knows too much about elevators.

@ Ton, what a cool jacket!

Looks top notch and warm, any special lining?
