Thanks, Jamie, you just made this thread look a lot better.

 

Thanks Robert, I don't see much of the big Engels Perfection lately, I would love to give that razor a shave with a nice SOTD photo after, I also forgot to ask how's the lindyhopper hopping? hope you are giving those ladies some good moves my friend. PS I'm sure I saw you in this film clip.

 

I'll bring out the Perfection tomorrow.

Believe it or not, I had lindyhop lessons from the originator, Frankie Manning, who was a member of Whitey's Lindy Hopper at the Harlem Savoy Club back in the 1920's and '30's. He was still dancing and teaching until the age of 94. His partner still teaches. Frankie is the dancer in coveralls in this movie clip.

 

Well Robert isn't that something amazing to think of one of the originals gave you a few lessons, there's great historical story there.
