Hey, stop callin' me old-timer! I checked the archives & found my oldest post from 24Jan1994. I was on & reading the list before that date, maybe Nov93. Somewhere in there the first h-costume outing occured. It was to the costume shop & wardrobe department of the now defunct American Musical Theater of San Jose with lunch and costumer's brag book showing at a nearby Chinese restaurant. (Back then, you may recall, we had real albums with paper pictures, not just albums on Facebook. I laugh to think of the changes.)
I've learned alot, bought a lot of books, made a lot of gowns & alot of h-costume friends since then. Happy website b-day, Penny and happy belated 16th birthday to h-costume, everyone! --cin Cynthia Barnes cinbar...@gmail.com On Thu, Jan 6, 2011 at 12:18 PM, <penn...@costumegallery.com> wrote: > So who are the old-timers on h-costume that are still here?
