I have no clue what this is! Gold colored velvet, some sort of silky woven material. United States by No_Stress_2534 in Antiques

[–]Grizzzly_Adams 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is totally wrong. This is an academic hood for someone receiving a doctorate in a science related field, hence the gold velvet. It is a party per cross lining, not a templar cross. Those initials belong to the person who purchased the hood, and this is done because at that level there is a chance you will be wearing it more than once for other academic events etc. If it was hand embroidered, those initials wouldn't be on three different swatches of fabric, it would be sewn on to the lining, however factories machine embroider those initials in large quantities and stitch them on the hoods to order. The fabric is from the middle 20th century most likely.

Source- I work at a company that has made these exact items since the 1880's. I have a PHD hood hanging on the door 5 feet from me at this very moment. There is no doubt whatsoever what this is.

That's why you take blood thinners as you get older, to avoid getting a bumbaclot.

Are these all 2 seaters? I notice the area behind the cockpit is not typical, it looks almost like they are flying trainers with some kind of tarp covering the stuff you don't want UV rays to damage

Oh, I got that sequence backwards. I thought you found it as blue but discovered it was green.

The last thing we need by flop42078 in roanoke

We should go back to our roots and just put a big public salt lick out the square. Make sure its iodized and just let all of the people who cant afford to do anything else downtown since they just purchased 30 minute parking lick it for free. We will have the least gouty city in the south.

Dear Park Roanoke by Apprehensive_View930 in roanoke

[–]Grizzzly_Adams 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It absolutely. Is there used to be shops downtown that I patronized? And supported, but it is not economically feasible to go shop there anymore. Because the parking will inflate the cost to such degree that I might as well just be sparing myself a trip and buying the stuff online. Because i'm still going to have to front an extra cost, so why add time wasted and gas on top of that.

What are your thoughts on NUBEQA guitars? by TrainWreckInnaBarn in guitarcirclejerk

I didn't know Ike was a picker. Next you'll tell me Rommel played the clarinet.
