    I think I might miss this movie

    Based on the trailer, it really looks like a 70s-style horror film a la Argento, which makes it kind of kitschy I suppose...I can't believe it even got made. Eek! In a further review (linked on the page Maggie added), the filmmaker describes his inspiration as: “For me the big influence on this...

    Be My Jazz Baby Pin

    Alligator crocodile bag w strange pattern of pits??

    I had this circa 1940s-50s handbag a while ago that had similar pits on the surface of the skin--you can see that they are only on the larger scales of the front/pocket section. It is stamped inside as "Genuine Alligator", if that helps? I feel like I have seen this on a few other vintage...

    Mashers! Fascinating article about hat pins and ju jitsu as tools for early feminists.

    Wow, what an interesting article! RE the hatpin issue, thanks to the American Hatpin Society, I discovered a few related details when I listed these extra long hatpins. (Link included, in case anyone would like to "arm" themselves with a vintage weapon of self-defense!)...
