They're in black-and-white, but maybe you can imagine copper tresses in place of certain shades of gray.<br /><br />I can't remember how I came across The Selvedge Yard in the first (fairly recent) place. It (and another blog of his which I haven't visited), says the About page, "are about all the things that interest me -- a menswear product, presentation & branding guy with a passion for people, places, things & ideas of enduring heritage, quality, authenticity & character. But I'm not all old school all the time -- I appreciate innovation & technology in all things." Maybe it's the general "heritage, quality, authenticity & character" bit, because his <em>topics</em> often aren't ones I'd seek out.<br /><br />...Looking back through his posts of recent months, I believe the one which must have first caught my eye is the one about the bizarro Bing Crosby/David Bowie "Little Drummer Boy" duet. Which led me to one about Bing Crosby and his fondness for denim. And THEN, I'm pretty sure, I saw the reference in his sidebar to <a href="http://theselvedgeyard.wordpress.com/2009/05/18/vintage-playboys-language-of-legs-the-stuff-of-male-sexual-delusions/" rel="nofollow">a popular post</a> of his called "Vintage Playboy: The Language of Legs/The Stuff of Male Sexual Delusions." ....<br /><br />...Er, where was I? Oh, right. I think you might like a visit to The Selvedge Yard. (His most recent post is about the shuttering last year of a popular bar in San Francisco.) I can't remember your expressing an interest in cars and Harleys and such, let alone men's clothing. I don't have much interest in those things, I know. But I do like dropping into the place. (So far haven't worked up the nerve to comment, though.)<br /><br />And speaking of nerve, one of my favorite things about this post of yours is the picture it paints in my head of a furtive Froog, perhaps in disguise, trying to snap a pic of this young lady.JEShttp://johnesimpson.com/noreply@blogger.com
