The Last Fine TimeBy turns, an elegy, a celebration, and a social history, The Last Fine Time is a tour de force of lyrical style.

By turns, an elegy, a celebration, and a social history, The Last Fine Time is a tour de force of lyrical style. Verlyn Klinkenborg chronicles the life of a family-owned restaurant in Buffalo, New York, from its days as a prewar Polish tavern to its reincarnation as George & Eddie's, a swank nightspot serving highballs and French-fried shrimp to a generation of optimistic and prosperous Americans. In the inevitable dimming of the neon sign outside the restaurant, we see both the passing of an old world way of life and the end to the postwar exuberance that was Eddie Wenzek's "last fine time."

Great material, sharp looking suit!
Size: 7, Color: Light Blue
Very nice suit! We got tons of compliments. Please note it does NOT come with an undershirt. We used this for a First Holy Communion, but I wouldn't hesitate to use it in a wedding! The material was the best that I've seen compared to the four other suits I bought on amazon (I was skeptical and crunched for time)...this won! Great value for the money too. My kid felt very sharply dressed, and wants to find another occasion to wear this light blue suit lol

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Perfect for My Suit-Loving 9-Year-Old 🤍👔✨
My 9-year-old is obsessed with suits, and this one was a total win! 😍 The 3-piece set (blazer, vest, and pants) makes him feel so grown-up and confident. The linen material is lightweight and breathable, which is perfect for warm weather ☀️ — and it doesn’t wrinkle easily, which I appreciate as a parent 🙌. He loves that he can wear it different ways — full suit, just vest and pants, or blazer and pants. 👌 The fit looks sharp, and the adjustable waist is super helpful. Perfect for weddings, school events, church, or any time he wants to dress to impress. 💙 Definitely a favorite in our house! 🎉
