Fox Trot

Post by steelbuttplate »

What do you guys know about Fox trot importers in NY. Were they an older importer? I haven't seen many of these.

Popular dance 1910's-1930's, especially in the 1920's, here is a nice video showing you how it's done. As to an importer in this state using that name, not that I know of, sounds fly by night, and we have a lot of those here.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

They are the current importer that found a way to get Mosins from Russia through the Ukraine by having a Ukrainian importer designate them as hunting rifles.

See? Fly by night shady dealers, NY is full of them, probably from down by the city or out on the Island.

Skaneatelles, NY. is where they live. They sells rifles by day and dance to Benny Goodman after hours. Watching that video, hell I've been dancing the fox trot since high school and didn't know. Not lately. Not in 20 yrs. Seems like I remember the more liquor white folk drink the better they dance.

Up by lake Otisco, the finger lakes ? Wait till crazy Andy hears about this. He`ll probably drive up there himself to crucify them. My grandparents had a farm near Onondaga, i remember as a child. Are these the ones being advertised for $339.00 in S.G.N. ?

I've just seen one on GB. It sold for less than that, under $300, a 35 Tula.
