    My heavily waxed Indy Boots...a tutorial for those who dare!

    Hats From the Steamboat Arabia -- 1856

    It really is well worth the visit. They even recovered foodstuffs such as pickles that were still edible. One of the particularly remarkable things is the sheer quantity of goods. They were loaded with ordered goods for frontier stores so they had everything imaginable to stock a shop. It's...

    Hats From the Steamboat Arabia -- 1856

    SOLD FS: Shudde Bros. 1960s OR clone -- 7 1/2

    It's a white or silverbelly (?, I guess). I don't know if that's the answer you're after. I would say on the white side of silver.

    For sale is my Shudde Bros. OR clone, dated 9-28-66, tagged 7 1/2. It states 'Custom Made' and has a 'MTO' (made to order) tag inside the sweat. The wind trolley is not functional, merely decorative. It has a moth divot on the brim, which you can see. I've brushed it since these picks, which...
