Proprietor of Vintage Scans blog. Worker-Dandyist. Talent(lessness) behind Proletkult Graphik. Listener of boss sounds from swing to garage to punk to folk to Northern. Bad, bad Lindy hopper. Proudly proletarian Red. Lover of the nylon-clad and high-heeled female leg. Hater of almost everything but especially averse to fashion (as opposed to style), post-modernist nonsense, the destruction of language, laminate flooring and wankers who leave dogshit everywhere. (I will also moan periodically about the state of modern day trousers and the idiots who wear them.)
