I talked to Art this Past Saturday and ordered a Black Cherry for myself. That makes three from Art. I have a Whiskey "Sportaire", a Silver Mist and now the BC. I think I am going to ask Art to make it just like the Sportaire because it is a little taller in the front. Perhaps a 1" or 1.5" wide...

Let's try four of us! Mine should be coming in January as well.
Welcome Yookee. If you send this picture to Art Fawcett (vintagesilhouettes.com) and tell him the color of the hat and ribbon width he will do the rest. He is well known around here and never disappoints with his creations.
If you guys are going keep on "knockin'" Stetson's then I'm going to ask you to put up your Dukes. I like mine very much and it is 3 or 4 years old. I have not worn it in a downpour but the everyday stuff proves to me that it is worthy of being given it due respect. I admit though that the...

OK you guys are making it hard on me. I have been lurking here for a while and after looking at many posts I ordered an Art Fawcett myself. I am not a hat wearer for the most part but there is something about a well dressed man that will finish off his attire with a hat that complements his...
My thoughts
I think it is all in the wording. "Perfect" to me means no flaws at all. If it was described as being almost perfect except for a few small stains or markings then that would be something else to consider. But perfect means ...perfect! Were there any pictures of either spots? If not...
