Gents, a bit lot out of my depth on these. Not for sale, just trying to figure out who these were painted by, and to determine if worth fixing the frames. Also planning to reach out to a couple galleries based on the label on back of one of them.

@Purplelabel congrats! Hold on and enjoy every moment. Our little one is 10 months old and time flies far too quickly!

the genre is dutch maritime . try to date the frames and then look for likely genre sigs

Congrats purp.

Good haul for me today.

Not familiar with the brands here, but it was 2.50 after winter sales applied. It’s got a quilted liner and is pretty dope.

I think these are Florsheim cordovans made for a local shop long ago. Can I get confirmation on both aspects?

Really impressed with the quality and softness of this Sulka cardigan, even if it is cotton.

This isn’t cool label vintage, but old enough to be MiUSA and still pretty damn minty.

The coat looks nice. Do you have any brand or shop info? It looks like my florsheim shells.

The shoes are neither Florsheim nor shell cordovan. That 50s Lakeland tweed is super nice though.

 

[vandelay74]

Ahh took a shot. Thanks though!

What tipped you off on the shell part because it looks an awful lot like shell. Here are mine for reference.

Congrats Purp!

Lots of great minor details on these things.
Definitely not the brand I expected when I first saw them



Onto the death pile they go
(Cheap plug if anyone needs pants)

 

[txwoodworker]

Pants, you say?

Hate listing pants.

 

[WoolyLamb]

Wow I feel so much better about the 5 or so pairs I need to list.

Might as well put it out there. Anyone got brown, olive or cream summer dress trousers? High twist, linen, cotton linen?

Also looking for cream chinos and flannels.

Im 34x39

 

[silverwarebandit]

Eyyyy congrats Purp!

Currently sitting in the hospital the morning after Mini Purp was born. Well, mini miss purp I guess.

Unbelievable feeling. Everyone’s tired and hungry but wow, what a ride.
