Posting an Art Special
Art, I reckon I can as fully understand what you are saying as any one. I will never forget when I was apprenticing, I was working on a very high dollar beaver hat and it was a real custom hand made one. I never really understood the difference and I not only put it on the crown iron but also... -

New 500X Sterling Beaver
Fedora, the way you describe the man and the hatter both are what I have known of him. While he was by far the finest hat maker, I ever met, he was not surpassing Wayne Johnson , Luther's Daddy, as he was ever bit as good and taught the trade to them both or so they tell it to be... -

New 500X Sterling Beaver
Mk, I do not know if you are referring to me or Rayk. I can only tell you what I know . I never seen Charlie be tight with any one but his father and Luthers father as well. I was closer to Luther . Charlie had a life of plenty and was a complex person. I was and am a simple man. I have seen... -

New 500X Sterling Beaver
Rayk, I want to post on this hatter and the hat and then go watch a movie. I worked with that man the better part of 15 years on and off. He is a complex man that has run off 75% of potential customers he could have had . If he had an inkling they were just shopping him for price or was less... -

AndyKev, I really thank you for your encouragement to sign up for eBay. I actually visit it semi frequently and do look for stuff on it some times. I have never been ashamed of being poor but was sometimes ashamed of being uneducated. I have tried to educate myself more but spending a... -

Hats Off To Art Fawcett
Rayk, I sure probably came off all wrong there and it was not my intention and I should have just said the truth that I can see. That is simply one beautiful hat. I do not know if it is 1 or 50 years old but it is simply beautiful. that Art is a magician and a hat artist . I would like to add... -

Hats Off To Art Fawcett
Well I just looked in on this post and I can flat out tell you that I thought the only think that Borsalino ever done good was the creasing of the hat and now I am thinking that Art does it better than them. I would like to ask or say something but before I do I want to ask it not be... -

Will wonders never cease?
Well It sure was not a 20.00 dollar hat but I bet anybody could have made it into a 100 dollar hat with some work. That feller was just priced to high. -

Sharp toyes I told her to go ahead and order them both and I reckon she did. I was not complaining at all and will be glad to get a second one for the .99. I thank you again for that link. -

two worlds collide...update!
Fedora, I reckon we all would like to think we know some thing about something but what I know about hat making is fairly primitive and could be carried in a thimble. Oh sure I can block, pounce and finish a hat out as good as any one I have seen. I can even sew in the sweatband... -

Havershaw, I do not think the number is significant except for very old and well established companies or ones still in existence as an identifier for their paticuar trade and internal purposes and to let the public know particular rating system. Like Fedora posted the xes from the Stetson... -

Fedora, I know some city folks that recently went to a farm store to buy a chicken ( a ditty ) as we know baby chicks as and was told they had to buy 6. Well to end a long story short you can get you a few chickens and raise them in any small lot where ever you are. I have the luxury of... -

Hello Michaelson, and thank you for that posting. I know the Clan up the road her has some several of them "Free range Chickens". Do you think I could trade a sack of them to that hat you are wearing? I know where the roost at and can pick me off a sack full of them expensive new fangled... -

Sorry I have not learned to read the post in order it seems nor how to reply properly to them. Thank you Sharptoyes for the ebay link. I do not have an account there but will try to get some one to bid on it for me and get it. Fedora, I see that Cavanaugh and it almost appears to have... -

I did get it on second reading and sorry to be so slow. Our life style here must be so different than where you live that it would be incomprehensible to either of us to understand the other fully. Chickens here are both meat and eggs to many home farmers and a considerable rest of us would...
