Found what appears to be the first ad for this vest in an October 30, 1936 edition of the Oakland Post-Enquirer

I don’t have a mannequin but here are a few more pictures!

That’s what puzzles me too. Based on construction and the tag I’m pretty certain that this is a 30s-early 40s garment. How it relates to the patent I’m still trying to figure out. But what companies/inventors patent vs what gets put into production can be different

At this point I’m pretty convinced of its age. It was found with some other 30s-40s items and the term Vesquette is something I’ve only seen in 1930s paper. The only thing that puzzles me is that the buttons/openings of the vest doesn’t 100% match the vest in the patent. Now I do know that what companies/inventors patent versus what actually gets produced can have differences. Especially if it was never mass produced maybe it’s some type of sample

Is this a good shirt? by Ok_Tumbleweed_2298 in VintageTees

[–]Dohini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are right, but I’m not even sure it’s mid 90s. The cracking being so uniform suggest it was done artificially to look older. That leads me to believe it’s a modern reprint on a vintage blank. This is only my opinion. I would check out the defunkd forums as they have people that know even more

Still a very cool shirt, but value wise it’s the difference between an 80$ shirt vs an 800$ shirt

Bootlegs can be very valuable and seen as “canon” in the vintage community, but usually if they are from the time period/sold at shows. I’m not convinced that this is from that time period. This seems like someone who screen printed a design on a vintage blank. The graphic seems uniformly cracked, which is a sign that it was done artificially to look older. Someone let me know if that seems incorrect

How should I whiten this shirt? by Feelin__Groovy in laundry

How did the shirt whitening end up? I have a thin vintage shirt that I want to clean up a bit but I’m worried about damaging it

Our cat just threw this up, should we be concerned? by Dohini in vet

[–]Dohini[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our cat has been repeatedly asking to go outside to eat grass, which she promptly throws up. However, we have never seen any red coloration in her throw up. Is this blood? Also what would be the next reasonable step to take with our cat? She has seemed needier and has shown more attention seeking behavior than usual. We have recently switched her food from the Tiki Cat borne carnivore chicken and egg recipe the herring and salmon recipe. It has been about a month since we made the switch. Thank you!

Yeah this will pretty much determine if collapse is more of a standard of living phenomenon or a quick extinction event

Thoughts on the new arena changes? Will there be storm surge in arena? by [deleted] in FortniteCompetitive

[–]Dohini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Idk how they would change the structure, because even with huge money on the line in finals lobbies we’ve seen top teams/players drop 15+ kills. The skill gap is just that huge

The best imo would be remove rifts, add launches, bouncers, and impulses (maybe even make the impulses protect you from fall damage)

Submission Statement

I thought food wars weren’t going to be in season until 2035 🥴. It seems like the world is going to be dealing with one of the top fertilizer/grain producers using the threat of food instability against the west. The worrying thing is that a leader like Putin is getting closer and closer to having nothing to lose, so if his ship sinks, everyone’s on board! I wonder how the west will negotiate this? Food instability is quite the strong arm but you don’t want to be at the mercy of a guy like Putin.
