Yep, you've guessed it. Today I unearthed the Holy Grail. It's a bit heavier than I imagined, but that doesn't trouble me.
For months now, I've been conditioned to think that to get a copy of the elusive Esquire's Encyclopedia of 20th Century Men's Fashions, I'd need about $800 in liquid cash. Not so.
Today, while searching through my university library's catalog, I practically dropped dead when the aforementioned title popped up. I was already thrilled to discover they have Esquire on microfilm here (hello L. Fellows on .pdf), but this was the icing on the cake. I'm looking through it right now, and the pictures alone are enough to elicit ecstasy. 700 pages of bliss. I'll be reading for a long time.
