Scroll Down for (10) Additional Scans:

The age of high society in the United States was remarkably brief but also glorious. The names of the families of "people-we-know" - from Astor to Vanderbilt, McCormick to Palmer, Cabot to Whitney - and the places they called home - Fifth Avenue, Newport, Euclid Avenue in Cleveland, Prairie Avenue in Chicago, Delmonico's ballroom - still evoke glittering images of style, wealth, and often-outrageous show. The era of "The 400," with all its glamour gentility, and pretension, is marvelously evoked in this book. Top Drawer is affectionate and ironic by turns, pointing out, for example, that the American elite were the greatest art patrons since the Renaissance, yet recounting scandals and foibles with a knowing eye that never loses sight of the ruthless quest for power that underlay the gilded surface. "The hoi polloi get their own back at the hoity-toity in Top Drawer, Mary Cable's witty social history of the Gilded age of Astors, Vanderbilts, Van Rensselaers, Havemeyers, Chatfield-Taylors, et al. A stylish performance . . . . Cable's polished prose, cool wit, and extensive research make illuminating history and grand entertainment."

Impressed
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
I’ll be honest, I didn’t have the highest expectations for this jacket. However, I very pleasantly surprised by the fit and quality. The jacket fit very well and just as I expected. The quality was even more impressive with the weight and overall quality of the denim. For the the price, this jacket definitely hits all the marks. I was able to style it perfectly with a hoodie.

A timeless classic at a great price
Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black
This is honestly a very well-made denim jacket, with all the classic features found on a Type III Trucker Jacket: 2 breast pockets, 2 side pockets, 2 inner pockets. The material feels very comfortable and thick and strong at the same time. A multi purpose jacket that will be your perfect companion for almost all seasons in almost all situations. I took an XL size because I wanted to wear a sweatshirt under it. I weigh 198 pounds and am 5.7 tall. I will probably buy another one in L size for a tighter fit.
