Actually Thedi Hektor Half Belt, and I'm not smart enough about jackets to review one LOL. This is a wonderful jacket though


Thanks, @Darrell2688 really makes a great hat
Thank you Captain, I will be able to get back to making hats full time again in a couple of weeks, if you want a new hat made, please do contact me. Maybe something in a Western style?
Have a Great Week and an even better Wekkend,
Darrell

Stayed with Homburg yesterday.. this time a Dobbs 15 as we went to the gallery reception for my high school photography teacher and His photography exhibition Two Hemispheres a juxtaposition of Iceland and Tanzania, Africa. Some very beautiful work And great to see my friend of nearly 40 years. I thought this little camera tie clip would be the perfect bling for the hat on this occasion.

Is it a bad thing that you clean a pile of hats and notice that one actually fits you — and you can’t remember when or where you got it?

Stetson “Nebraskan” OR clone.

Excuse the loose wind trolley — I should have attached it to a button hole on this windy day!

Could that be Stetson’s version of the Resistol Nebraskan for the 1967 Centennial? If I remember correctly Scott @CS77 had a Resistol. Looks like a 2.25 - 2.5” brim?

"Is it a bad thing that you clean a pile of hats and notice that one actually fits you — and you can’t remember when or where you got it?" Old age and amnesia Bob, common bed fellows. Times I can't remember where I left my cane, and the classic, walk into a room, forget why you went there, get back to where you were and then remember why.
“Nebraskan” OR clone. Just don't take it off and forget where you have left it. A fine lid like that doesn't deserve to go missing. By the way, should you come across my beech, polished cane, do let me know.

It's been raining here for 2 days so no outside shots today. Strutting around like a proud new Poppa in my new Art Fawcett VS . Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I'd be lucky enough to find one. Really happy Mrs. Fawcett decided to let this one go ! The first 2 pix depict the Charcoal gray color accurately.
* Thanks again @ jeffgarf for the original tip about these coming up for sale !

I'm just wanting us all to enjoy what we may have missed out on previously. Thank goodness for 2nd chances. BTW, another one sold last night.

49 degrees and the wind finally died down! All the pecans are on the ground, and Mr Bear no longer has the winds whipping his ears around. Think yesterdays pecans falling on him, the noisy wind, and the trees waving around dramatically kinda of overloaded him. He chose to stay inside or on the patio most of the day. Quieter today so hes already enjoyed a morning romp out back.

To keep the head warm, I thought the Campdraft Deluxe was perfect today (Cedar Brown)

I’ll get measurements and better pics when I get back to the farm in a couple of days.
Everything I see would be consistent with 1967 & the 100th anniversary of Nebraska statehood, including a retailer in northern Nebraska. I was just not aware of Stetson having a model for the celebration like Resistol did. First one I’ve seen. Sorry to interrupt the fashion show for research.
