    Crossbones

    With fall TV season right around the corner you'd think we'd hear more on these new TV shows. Unless they plan to release them in Feb to replace other series that have fallen away...
  2. Do you think the curls will soften with time? How much did you pay if you don't mind?
  3. Embroidery is way out of my skill set! The logo say (are you ready for this!) "Woman's World" with a very modern looking globe. Tough pirate wearing women's rose gloves!
  4. Some backstory first: I do stage combat and one thing required is a decent pair of leather gloves. The leather protects the hands should a blade slip past the hilt. Most stage combat weapons develope burs on the blade that can also cause injury. That said I found a beautiful set of long leather rose gloves that will fit my needs very well. The problem is that the gloves have a nasty logo on the back of the hand. So I'm considering disguising the logo. I thought maybe some lace. Yeah it's foppish but I am a fancy fellow. Any ideas?
  5. I bought my copy at the local Target. Paid around $16.00 USD for it. They had Neverland too.
  6. I'm about half done with this book and enjoy it very much. The tale links together many POTC themes and characters. Jack Sparrow is a slightly different than how he is portrayed in the films but still recognizable. If you are looking for fun and like the "history light" Disney approach the book is a good one!
  7. Post a photo when you receive it please!
  8. Okay I understand. Couldn't think why you'd want a ribbon on a walking stick...
  9. You could create some great props for a mock trial! Even better if you could have a trial with some of the red coats or a nobleman as the prisoner!
  10. long ribboned walking stick??? Can you explain Grymm?

    Love that wheellock!
  13. By giving Jib rum on this day you are honoring a tradition that dates back to the Romans!
  14. Good Commodore I noticed the url to your web site is not working...
  15. While this is more of a Buccaneer Era image I thought it might be interesting to see others images of Memento Mori. I seem to recall Foxe mentioning that the skull and crossbones was also a symbol for the resurrection. ttp://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/goldsmiths-art-germany-17th-century-memento-mori-skull-ring-news-photo/122339482
  16. I recently killed a bottle of Siesta Key rum which was very nice but a little rough to drink "neat".

    Siesta Key mate! Great place!
  18. I thought about the Royaliste but I think that ship is more designed to fit into the time frame of the War of 1812 (but it is a BEAUTIFUL SHIP)
  19. Did the concept of childhood have the same implications during the GAOP as it does today? We often see examples in the past of children being given roles that are beyond what is considered acceptable today (work and labor comes to mind).
  20. Currently in Minnesota. We have the exhibit until Labor Day (September).
  21. Barry mentioned three ships scuttled near the pirate island. He said that it was done to block access to the small habor. Two I believe he mentioned were Middle Eastern in design (and one he mentioned was buried deep in the mud had some kind of cabin still intact).
  22. New images uploaded and tale told!

    Voyage to the Barrier Islands

    Jib is in trouble again! This time he needs to find a lost jewel or face the hangman's noose!
