Vincent All description

This wedding gown, an ALFRED ANGELO Original, was designed by Edythe Vincent and is probably from the 1960's or 1970's. It is semi-sheer ivory chiffon? (or organza? or ??) with a sheer golden yellow ruffle trim at the wrists and hem. The dress features beautiful applique, covered buttons, and detachable train. The semi-sheer fabric of the skirt portion covers a layer of white netting over a stiff under fabric. The arms and bodice are two layers of sheer fabric (chiffon? or organza? or?), the under layer more sheer and the outside layer with a satiny finish. The dress has a back zipper hidden under a row 29 satin covered buttons which match the ones at the wrists. The applique is layered and intricate across the chest, back and waist. Single rows of the daisy like flower are used for trim around the neck and yellow ruffle. A single one runs down each sleeve to a wreath-like applique design; 3 run down the front of the gown and 2 in the back to a wreath-like applique. The pictures appear whiter and lighter than the dress.

This smaller size dress is not marked for size, but measures close to a SIZE 6. My approximate measurements of the dress laying flat:  15" shoulder to shoulder, 15 1/2" armpit to armpit, 13 1/2" across at empire waist, 54" back, 42" empire waist to hem, and 22" sleeves.  It is nice vintage condition; it has dirt around the neckline, and the bodice and sleeves seem a bit dirty or yellowed - the train is slightly whiter than the dress.

Nigerian King’s Rudge Multi, Plus Many Other Rare Motorcycles, For Sale At Bonhams Auction

Thu, 22 May 2014

The upcoming Bonhams Banbury Run Sale is set to be a motorcycle enthusiast’s dream, with 102 lots of iconic bikes available to the highest bidder. Within the sale, an intriguing duo of Brough Superiors will be offered for auction from a family synonymous with motorcycles for generations – Myerscough. The motoring history behind the Myerscough family began in 1893 when Leonard Myerscough opened a business repairing and selling bicycles, followed by motorcycles and automobiles. At the peak of this business, five locations serviced the Liverpool area under the banner L Myerscough & Sons Ltd. Encouraged by his father, the eldest son, Len Jr, took up dirt track racing in the late 1920s, enjoying success as a contracted team rider for both the Belle Vue Aces and Preston teams from 1928 to 1931.

Behind the “Bathing Suit” Picture

Fri, 09 Jan 2009

Few motorcycle photographs are as iconic as that of the famous Bonneville “Bathing Suit Picture.” While you have undoubtedly seen this image before, you may not know the story behind it. The scantily clad and debatably crazy rider was a man by the name of Roland “Rollie” Free. The bike, often thought by many to be a Vincent Black Shadow, was in fact a Black Lightning – the fastest Vincent ever to see production.
