What's your All-time favourite vintage thread on Fedora Lounge?

[PADDY]

Someone 'on here' recently mentioned what 'one' thread stuck in their mind from the Fedora Lounge. There's always one isn't there, that just sticks with you and pops a Cheshire Cat grin across your face, when you think of it...

So, it got me thinking, what ONE THREAD has made an impact on me and lingers like a perfume in my mind...??
My personal vote is for the great:

Howard Hughes Romaine Street visit (with mind blowing photos)....JUST CLICK HERE.

Thanks to the gents, who reminded me how much I loved reading this piece and looking at the photos Havershaw kindly took.

Sorry to bring it up again, but the Male Underwear thread was killer. What a larf. (pity about the silken tantrums that were thrown, but there you go)

BOXERS!


I have enjoyed "What Do You look Like?" and "Ten Unusual Things About You."
Because I am nosey.

The Fountain Pen is fun. There is so much information in it and so many different points of view about pen preferences, inks, nibs, and just about everything else to do with pens.

BRIEFS!!!

Seriously, though. The "Show Us Your Suits" series has been a delight for the eyes. (at least the eyes of a vintage suit fanatic. Wingnut's green p/s suit ... drool)

It's a tie between the "Show us your suits" thread and the "7000 Romaine/Howard Hughes" thread. Both were captivating.

I´m mostly in the powder room s it is "Show us what you made" and "Show us your purchases". Besides those I really liked the "10 unusual things about you" a lot, too.

Great Post PADDY

Paddy, I feel in the just over a year here @ the FL Havershaws Hughes Office post captured the SPIRIT & FEEL of what this joint should be all about.

The thread about vintage themed offices and how you would furnish them.

It branched off into computers and peripherals made to look like ordinary items.

I agree with RetroModelSari that the "Show us what you made" and "Show us your purchases" are great, but I think my all time favorite is the photo thread from the last NYC event (the Queen Mary ones are great too). It's so much fun to put faces to names, see everyones great duds and camraderie.

I too enjoy looking at the pics from the events. But have also enjoyed reading the ones having to do with what perfume/cologne you like.

 

[Miss Dottie]

I must admit there are so many! But I do adore the "Show Us What You Made" one in the Powder room is a keeper.

Any thread that had pictures of the beautiful Jitterbugdoll in them. My favorite pinup.

OH yes...and this one!

The thread where members show photographs of their loved ones when they were in the service (ie: WW1/WWII/Korea). Some really lovely and interesting photos and all so dear and personal to the person who posts them.
