This is my washed shirt after working on the rear end of my 19 T.
That 600 weight gear lube sticks better than peanutbutter!
I'm guessing that it will hard to find a tie to go with it for Church on Sunday morning!
Do you think I'm in a bit of trouble?
Woops forgot the picture!
Fred,
No, I think your fine, as long as you don't put any "evidence" on the Internet. Oops, too late
Rob
How about this tie?
G'day,
Shirt is fine, loose that tie!!!!!
Peter
Send that tie this way, it'll go with my Aloha shirts!!
You could tie-dye the shirt, then no one would notice the spots. . . .
David D.
Just dye the shirt 600 wt black and have no problems, colored shirts are in style now. Even black.

Call the "fashion police".
A few years ago, the dress shirts came out in colors and hardly anyone wore white, so I used all my white shirts for working on the car and yard work. Then the colored shirts went out of style, and I got white shirts and used the colored ones for working on the car and in the yard, and painting etc. Now the colored shirts are back in style, but I will continue to wear the white ones until they wear out. Hopefully, by then either the white ones will be back in style or the colored ones will continue in style. It seems just like when I bought a real to real movie camera and the next year the cassette camera came out. Then I bought a real to real tape recorder, the next year the cassette came out. I finally got that kind and they came out with discs. Anyway, things just keep changing. Maybe, the Model T will come back into style?

Get yer self one of dem pair of Bibbed overalls from the Steve Jelf Collection .
You'll always be in style. I guarantee !!
It must be really bad to offend the "fashion police" in Nebraska!
I wonder if Rob means the shirt or tie?
George/Steve - I have a pair of bibbed overalls but they don't fit around the middle anymore!
Hmmm - they don't fit close to the same place the dark blotches appear on the front of the shirt.
And it is the same body part that doesn't fit under the car!
This is proof that the car sits lower than it did a few years ago...
What's the age of that photo, Steve? I'm curious about the kid on crutches. Polio? My Dad, born in '32, had a friend in school who contracted polio. I don't suppose it was too rare back then. Glad that's pretty well been eradicated.
My Aunt, Mary Parker, took that picture of her boys at Oak Grove School during the 1920-1921 school year. I don't know about the boy on crutches. I think I've seen him with them in other pictures, so they may not have been a temporary thing.
Fred, you just need a bigger tie.
How 'bout a nice paisley vest? Or a rain coat!
Steve,
I thought the photo was a Jelf family reunion photo.
All Boys? Not unusual to see little guys wearing big shoes, hand-me-downs from big brothers and Dads. My Dad told me they would save their shoes for school or for when they went to town and go barefoot around the farm. A lot of kids went barefoot to school.
Those little fellas are all wearing shoes. judging from the coats it's chilly weather.
I see that some of the boys are still sporting "Bowl Cuts"
No worse than my daughter's $70 jeans with holes all in them.
Daddy!!!!!!!they came that way.
Fred, Given the current fashion trend, I figure your shirt is now worth at least $250.00.
As far as wearing it to church, you'll be welcomed where I attend.
Hi Fred
If that's a tab-tie, your good to go, Kid!
Harvey ....
John, here are the girls.
In 1921 bobs are coming into style.
looks good to me!
Steve, your Aunt Mary had quite a bunch of kids in her country school house.
