Gifts for the Vintage Man - Idea #1 - 1930s Cravats!


December 9th, 2007

From now until the New Year, we are featuring a gift idea per day for the Vintage Man on your shopping list. We will be featuring every era, so you can find just the right item. We have looked far and wide to tap you on the shoulder to find only the best in condition as well as do our best to find things his friends won’t have.

Today, we feature a box of 1930s knit cravats. They are at auction on Ebay with less than 3 days to go and are offered by Katzoid. There is some age staining on the box, but the ties themselves are in excellent condition. I have dealt with Katzoid before and can assure you, you will be well taken care of!

Click to Bid NOW. You won’t find these very often!

Buy it for: The vintage tie collector, the depression-era historian, the fedora lover, guys who love the color blue, those that feel they should have lived during the art deco period.Please tell ‘em you saw it in VintageGent’s Menswear Daily!

LA Time Machines: Where to Wear


July 29th, 2007

Los Angeles Time Machines is a site that we have been watching for awhile that we think our readers would enjoy. It focuses exclusively on pre-1970s restaurants and bars that are still in their original state. Occasionally, there are updates on when folks can make a big difference in saving a historic vintage landmark so stay plugged in!

It mainly focuses on the many sites in Los Angeles, California, but has extended to includes spots in Nevada, Maryland, Washington and beyond.So, go look up a historic place and show up in your vintage clothing! It would make a great retro photo!

Another great place brought to our attention recently is the KFC in Marietta, GA. Lizzie wrote about it recently, and if you are driving through, go take a look!
