---1--- I'm tired of waiting for the calendar and archives to be fixed. And after more than 7 years of diferent net activities I get very suspicious when free services stop answering users with problems. All two often these services turn into pay services or just get closed down. So in order to save my posts I have moved all of them into the new weblog.
---2--- My friend the Kiwiadmiral, with whom I run TackyTimes felt like taking part in the action so it was only natural to add the weblog to the Tacky Times network.

In the webmasters own words:The Mayflower has never been the most popular of cars and it has been said that 34,000 were sold only because in the fifties cars, of any type, were in short supply. It is fair to say you either love it or hate it. I love it. Because those that hate it far outnumber those that love it, or even slightly like it, it has sunk beneath the waves of obscurity and rides the crest of ridicule. It appears that by the time the sixties arrived even Standard Triumph were embarrassed by its very production and today there is very little to be found in terms of history or reference material. It is truly Triumphs forgotten car. http://www.users.globalnet.co...~nicouls/triumphmayflower .htm
Originally a stage and cabaret dancer, Stanwyck moved to Hollywood with her first husband, vaudevillian Frank Fay. She made impressive appearances in films such as Frank Capra’s “The Miracle Woman”,(1931), William Wellman’s “Night Nurse”,(1931) and, particularly, King Vidor’s classic woman melodrama, “Stella Dallas”,(1937), and was a full-fledged star by the end of the 1930s. http://www.moderntimes.com/ba...
As you must have noticed. ImageZilla has gone completely bonkers and are for some strange reason asking for permision to wiev every picture hosted at teir site. And that's not all, when using my login and password provided by them, I still can't see the pictures
In the webmasters own words: From vintage pinups, to 80s glamour queens, no matter who you had a crush on growing up, you're bound to find a beautiful lady here that you adore. If you have a hottie you'd like to suggest, feel free to email me using the link above. Who are my favorites of all time? That's a tough question for sure! Off the top of my head I'd have to say it's a tie between Pam Grier, Sophia Loren, and Julie Newmar. My first crush was in Kindergarten when I had the hots for Lindsay Wagner, The Bionic Woman (who I keep putting off making a gallery of, cause it better be just right). I remember my mom found a picture I drew of me kissing her and it said, "I Love Lindsay Wagner." How embarrassing is that? Enjoy!http://www.retrocrush.com/bab...

Gerald Ford was the only President to have two women attempt to assassinate him. Both attempts were in California in September of 1975. The first attempt was September 6, 1975, by Lynette Fromme who thought she could impress Charles Manson by killing the President. The next attempt was by Sara Jane Moore on September 22, 1975. Her motive was simply that she was bored.

Woodies have always satisfied the need for stylish transport of people and parcels. The earliest woodie automobiles were utilitarian adaptations of the 'Rockaway' horse-drawn carriage and canopied express trucks. By the thirties, fashionable American woodie station wagons were pressed into service by lodges, inns and country clubs. At about the same time, wealthy land-owners with country estates adopted the woodie for suburban transportation - frequently with a chauffeur at the wheel. In Europe, wood was utilized by coachbuilders of exquisite vehicles for the aristocrat. http://www.oldwoodies.com/ind...

Vintage ads offer a fascinating glimpse of history and represent the archival documents of our consumer driven society. If you own a vintage or show vehicle, a print of its original publicity advertisement is the finishing touch to your investment. http://www.adclassix.com/site...
In the 'Golden Age' of the Picture Postcard, publishers & photographers competed to capture their share of what was an enormous market and just as today, feminine beauty was a big seller. Vast numbers of cards were produced, both artist drawn and photographic, ranging from the innocent charm of elegant Edwardian beauty through to some that were frankly pornographic. European photographers were quick to recognise demand for photographs of female nudes. Studios, particularly in France and to a lesser extent in Germany, produced a wide range of nude and risqué photos which, although they could not be displayed for sale openly, still found their way into the 'private' collections of many gentlemen of the era. These are the classic 'Dirty' or 'Naughty' postcards of the Edwardian era - largely innocent by today's standards but much less acceptable back then ! http://www.edwardian-delights...
This is a collection of vintage and retro art, postcards greeting cards and photography and clipart. The photography is sensual, classy, and almost chaste by today' standards. In it's day this photography offended many and was considered terribly brazen by most. Today it is called art and most would find it in very good taste! http://www.vintagelove.com
One of places that host the images for this blog seams to be down for the time being. Let's hope it is temporary and that they haven't packed it in for good. I have several other places to host images, so if they don't turn up again, I'll upload the missing images there later to day.
