Gray Stingy Cavanagh, 7 3/8-1/2
There's going to be variance depending upon the shape of the ellipse, i.e., the oval. Hence the fact that a 7 3/8 will always have the same circumference, whether it be a short oval, a round oval, a long oval, or an extra long oval...- XPLSV

BEWARE ! POSTAL INSURANCE.
Postal Insurance is Almost a Scam My wife had bought a doll a couple of years back. She paid about $250 for it. She figured it to be worth about $800 in it's current condition. One of her "investment" purchases :p Anyway, the doll arrived damaged--the glass eyes had been knocked loose from...- XPLSV

U.S. Army considers new uniforms
I always eyed the Army mess cape but never got around to buying one. Just a little hard to justify the money for the amount I would have actually worn it. With the Ordnance branch color of crimson, the lining would have nicely contrasted with the blue. I used to attend a Christmas party in...- XPLSV

Borsalino Homburg Reblock Needed...
I've got a nice vintage Borsalino Homburg that came into my possession awhile back and I'm thinking about getting it reblocked/resized. It's a Punti 5 1/2 and is a bit tight on my 7 3/8 LO head. Felt has a slight "crinkle" line along the front, perhaps from improper storage at some point over... -
Adventurebilt hats - anyone ordered from?
Steve just announced some improvements to his Raiders block, saying it finally fixes a few small items on the back that were just never completely to his liking. Also, he announced a potential "retirement" from "making hats" when he turns 60 in about two years, although he will continue to... -
how do you store your hat?
For anyone living near a Western Warehouse, they are currently going out of business nation-wide and selling off their fixtures and merchandise. The two local stores here in Colorado Springs have the foam and the plastic hat stands on sale for $1 or $2 each. This doesn't save any shelf space... -
Help with Thirft Found Hat
Recent Arrival I just had a St. Regis Royal Deluxe arrive in yesterday's mail. It was said to look unworn--I think I'd have a hard time finding a new and modern hat on the shelf that looked as unworn as this one. :D And, although not a big Homburg person, the 7 3/8 Long Oval from this 50's... -

Borsalino size question
Some Borsalino's will use the Punti sizing system. I picked up a 1952 Borsalino Homburg off OFAS a couple of months back that was advertised as a size 5 1/2. That's about a 7 1/4 US. Although Homburgs are not my favorite style, I was happy with my $26 winning bid and thought I might take some... -

What's a wind trolley?
I've noticed the same thing and it crossed my mind that the age of the American hats might have caused a loss in elasticity--but perhaps it was never elastic in the first place. I have considered using the wind trolley on a few occasions and found my lapel bottun hole to be sewed shut, as is... -
Mint 1950s Open Road
OK...it just didn't quite fit me well enough, so I put it up on EBAY. If you are an Open Road type of guy, it is worth a look. Needs a good home. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230300160527- XPLSV

Vintage Stetson - The Sovereign?
Lefty, That first hat is very similar to my 1949 Stetson...appears to be the same liner and the imprinting on the band shown on the ebay hat is virtually the same as mine, aside from the "Long Oval" designation. The opposite side Stetson Philadelphia address on Chestnut Street. No size tag... -

Ladies Vintage Hats - Gone!!!
I've been doing some fall cleaning...these hats have been sitting in the back and getting no use. They need a new home...I'll ship the lot of them for $10 to any US location. Outside of US, may need some extra money for postage. They come as a family...you can split them up after you get...- XPLSV
