Nice 'Guido2',
I've put a bid in, but I'm not sure how successful I'll be!
I'm trying to move some stuff that I never wear or doesn't fit or whatever, and I find the various sales threads unwieldy.
So I am experimenting with this: http://theconnecticutyankee.blogspot.com/
So far the response has been underwhelming, this might not be the best format. I'll leave it up a couple of weeks and see what happens.

Well, nobody bit from the other forums but I've had three firm offers from FNBers. And I thank you.
^ Thanks but this is a one-off. As soon as the purge is complete I'm out of the game. I don't have time for it.
Some shoes and stuff up, check it out.
I get bonus points at the post office now for shipping to exotic locales such England and Finland. I sent a sport coat to Italy recently, with great misgivings, and it arrived in Naples four days later. Meanwhile the credit card company claims my payment — sent to South Dakota with a week to spare — was late and wants to soak me an extra $30. Go figure.

not ivy by a longshot, but thought it might be of interest to a suedehead purist or clothing collector. 17x34 yellow perm. press "gentry tapered" bd, 4 1/4" lined collar, bigger buttons, union stamp. looks to be NOS.
also viewed; 1 pr. 13-13.5 longwings, black, and some nice 13 brown bal wingtips. also 13 florsheim wallabee copies w/ regular, non-crepe sole, black.
also saw a couple of extremely nice grey orphaned suit jackets, a 40R H. freeman and a brooks makers golden fleece in heavy flannel, in a bigger unmarked size.
