Mon, March 26, 2007 - 9:53 PMI personally like my books:
Men's Fashion: The Complete Sourcebook, by John Peacock
Men's Fashion in the Twentieth Century: From Frock Coats to Intelligent Fibres, by Maria Costantino
....... and even better, someone's composed a list of 1930's and 40's fashion books that are available.

Wed, April 4, 2007 - 7:19 PMANY vintage store should have them, and for not much money. We have a whole box of them at ReRuns, for maybe ten bucks... -

Wed, April 4, 2007 - 10:58 PMThanks a million!
I live in Barcelona and have searched and searched, came close but no luck.
I briefly looked @ the link.
I even searched on-line without any luck.
I hope I can track some down!
I think they're down right sexy & I want one for my handsome, tie-wearin' man!

There are lots of experts there. They have rather strict rules regarding decency (g rated), but are usually very friendly.
