I hope this fits. I was in a hurry, so I didn't try it on.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

If it don't, get at me bro!

And this is the mystery piece. Anyone? It's pretty heavy and awesome.

Spoiler: Riddle me this

Wow! Not sure on maker, but dated 1940 it should bring a few bucks on Ebay if it's in good condition. The folks at the Fedora Lounge are helpful for identifying vintage stuff.

Great haul, are the T&A shirts slim fit by chance?

They don't seem to be, about standard for a 16.5, something close to 23/24 p2p. I have not measured them all, but I imagine they were all from the same donor so they should be pretty close.

That moment when you realize that the seemingly in good condition Brooks Brothers merino v-neck sweater has a quarter-size hole. So not worth the $4.

I found the aforementioned Brooks Brothers sweater and a Zegna shirt. The shirt fit like a tent, despite being a medium. Fake?

Thanks, always been my problem, big neck, short arms, medium build. If I get a 16 ½ regular fit, it fits like a tent and the sleeves are 2 inches too long.

[COLOR=FF00AA][/COLOR]Went to an estate sale and saw a pair of shoes to flip but cannot id th maker. Help?

There is a small crown emblem/symbol and it is not the Florsheim one. I'm hoping I can attach pics from my phone.

Edit: I guess I can't add photos from my phone. Someone want to give me their number so I can text the photos? Lol Nantaku?

Kind words, but I'm sure anyone would have done the same. It was like watching your sweet grandmother fall.
I am annoyed when I see intolerance to old people and the mentally disabled. I get upset when I see older people forced to stand on the bus or tram when there are clearly marked seats for them that are occupied by able bodied people. I've been known to be fairly rude when I tell 12 year olds that they should stand up and offer the 95 year old woman a seat as she's hanging on for dear life at every turn

Strange you mention mentally disabled...saw this today and wondered how long ago it was to be able to get away with this.

Must have been some time ago, it's the same here. It's moved from one word to the next on what is acceptable. At one time, you could use the word "zurückgeblieben" to describe a person, literally it's to stay back or backwards. It's still used in an offensive manner.

^If those are your finds, awesome!

Whaaaattt?

I wish! They're actually from our cart kicking friend

Oh, and Eazy, did you get my PM?
