    You are too kind, my friend. Thank you! Love your Mallory Ten. You wear the hat with real swagger. In addition to the Golding "Pearl" letterpress there is a beautiful printer's type cabinet complete with contents as well as a letterpress cabinet covered with gorgeous, mellow old paint and...

    Sincere apologies for my belated thanks for your kind comments, Steve! Thanks, Ed. As with most things, there is a considerable range in desirability and consequently, price, based upon factors both objective and subjective. I would say that values for good American Folk Art such as...

    Looks like you were wearing feathers all around today, Alan. I like your juxtaposition of an ancient derby with contemporary 600 fill down.

    Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.

    A long-overdue bump to this, one of my favorite threads. Way to go, Robert! :eusa_clap A fantastic lid with interesting details. Buffalo sure seemed to have a disproportionate share of hatters back in the day.

    One never knows what may walk in. My decoy friend Ken from Ohio picked up this great old "Snaky-Head" Canvasback Drake by Tobin Meldrum of Pearl Beach, Michigan on the last day of the show. Much as with our vintage hats, there are still gems waiting to be discovered "in the field"...

    The thermometer still read below zero F when we left Augsburg College in the late afternoon, but the termperature was rising steadily as a significant weather system moved into the area. We were proud of all the kids, and of Ryan and his teammates, who tied for third place. Celebration...

    Many thanks for the nice words, guys! Those HATS, and your Benedetto Martino rock, Perry! I like that moniker, Alan, although I can think of several distinguished loungers for whom the sobriquet would be more apt! ;) Your Dunlap brought a smile to my face today. You should look in the...
