Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's The World War ll family at Hershey reminds me of an idea that I have had for years. This idea could be used at the MARC and MAFCA national meets (or any meet):
1. The fashion committee could get together with the fine point people at local Model A era venues to take Model A period photos. 2. A fee could be charged and used to fund the MAFFI museum or a charity of choice. 3. The folks in period costume would be dynamic so no two photos would have exactly the same "background". 4. In some photos the Model A(s) would be the focus and in others it would be the folks in period dress. 5. Using fine point vehicles would assure that the photos were period accurate, though others could also be part of the process. 6. A book and/or calendar could produced from these photos. Proceeds could help MAFFI or fund other Model A events. Just some thoughts. Dean |

Re: Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's Ever notice that today most people dress like they are on vacation in the Bahamas.
Very sloppy looking..nothing like the 30s where people had real class. |

Re: Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's I to think Dean has a great idea...I see so many ORIGINAL photos of the time that I would like to recreate some. Some shots are out here in the Pacific Northwest such as the photo at the big rutunda overlook on the Columbia River and at Multnomia Falls.

Just took these on Sunday at a two locations in our area. Our pickup and coupe, and another gentleman with his Roadster.

Re: Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's At the marc convention in Niagara Falls, an enthusiastic group from Canada's Capital As wore era clothing as their everyday wear, a very nice touch. I hope MARC encourages this.

Re: Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's Great photos everyone!! Try using a film camera or editing them to mimic the look of film it will help to "sell the idea. Those are great photos but very digital looking. Hers one you guys have seen before.

Re: Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's The tyre tracks are missing on the dirt and way too much reflection on the superimposed A.

Re: Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's Levitated Model A?

Re: Model A Era Fashion meets Model A's Well, I'm not so sure all the folks back then were able to afford the latest fashion.
Anyone remember the depression and the dust bowl? The one thing that is very noticeable in the old "back in the day" photos.......the cars weren't always shiny and new looking. They had hard, dirty miles on them with dings, scuffs and dents from use. |
