All Things Vintage & Old-fashioned
 

After searching, I couldn't find a general thread for lovers of all things vintage, so here it is.

Since "vintage" is commonly such a broad topic these days, I figured this could include a love for any of the following:

~ Bygone eras (Victorian, 1950s, etc.)
~ Retro/vintage/vintage appropriate fashions (cars, shoes, clothes, houses, etc.)
~ Art, design, decor, photography
~ Music, books, film
~ Old-fashioned relationship dynamics, values, lifestyle
~ Old-fashioned recipes & foods
~ Crafts & projects
~ Trinkets

Literally anything that evokes nostalgia or a passion for admiring, preserving & remembering older styles & times. I guess I would like to keep the focus on mostly pre-1990s.

So, if you're like me and have this affinity for things of the past, what are some of your favorites?

To start here are a few of mine:
