Gents—
Been messaging with @manowar (in part re: the funny magazine garbage).
Would anyone here be interested in contributing to a “styleforum stories” commemorative publication (even if it’s just a PDF for us) to coincide with the AE 100? AE released a book “90 Stories for 90 Years”; it could be a rogue version of this.
I would be happy to handle all the text management / editing / wording; if someone has real graphic design experience (as opposed to my screwing around on a laptop), that would be neat…
If this gets some likes / replies, I’ll throw my email up on a post.

I have amateur-level experience putting brochures together in Microsoft Word but nothing particularly good. I know there are a lot of stories worth adding from the good folks around here. We could even start nominating some users.
I have a handful--two Hamiltons, one Patton, a bourbon Randolph, etc. -- all bought at very low prices (sub-$150) that Amazon's algorithm seems to set when the inventory gets down to two in stock (then back up to full price for the last one). I think they are all unmarked, higher-end seconds but are in the range of what sometimes gets delivered as firsts from AE directly--fuzzy welt join, misaligned eyelets (a very common AE issue), etc.
Welp, the $185 Daltons that I had in my cart yesterday pending spousal approval just shot back up to $445. I guess I have my answer now.
