    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    BR: Really appreciate the wonderful photos from the Balloon Fiesta. The pre-dawn photos are particularly striking. Must be both glorious and a bit sad for you to watch the spectacle from terra firma. jlee562: Great photo. Beautiful hat. The thought of such a nice lid blowing...

    Ale: Thanks, but I'm afraid you can't have the Borsalino! :nono: Besides, at Punti 6.5 it would sit on your ears, and even your prodigious hatting skills won't suffice to make it fit! lol Alan: Thank you, and from one 'Hommie' to another, :tea:

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks, Jeff, so you were able to make it to your premier after all! I forgot to mention to you that I had totally overlooked the fact that Lydia had included Saturday's Minnesota Orchestra concert as part of our season ticket package, so we sadly missed attending to your premier. I hate...

    Weekend Roundup Saturday morning, a breeze filling the jib and main on a great old, free sailing model yacht, the second of two that I have found in the past month. VS, Satin, Granite. Dusty pre '46 Mallory and bold-look Champ Supreme White Coney 4X Quality. Trying on the great...

    What a beautiful lid! Seldom encountered color for Disney, which looks to be a close match to Graham's Silverbelly. Love the contrasting ribbon and thin, subtle binding. Interesting and amusing typo. Judging by sweatband, liner, and tag I would say '50s. Congratulations, Ale! :thumb:

    Not quite the caliber of Alan's lids, but in spirit that is what I had in mind. lol That girl has panache...or she is hawking hats.

    A remarkable hat, and a fitting conclusion to your Western inspired week.

    The Cavanagh Club

    Ah, that explains it. Your ribbon is slightly narrower than the one on my example, which has the same brim width but sports a higher crown.

    The Cavanagh Club

    Interesting to hear your take on the hat's lines. How tall is the crown as you have it creased? I think that beyond camera lens distortion, the smaller size of the hat changes its lines relative to a larger example, further accentuating the appearance of crown height. If the ribbon is 2", as...

    The Cavanagh Club

    Very nice Cav, Alan. It is a brother to my milk-chocolate example. The 2-1/4" brim works well with the general proportions of the hat, and along with the straight, tall crown and frayed ribbon, lends it a very distinguished, '30s look.

    Great photo from a fine camera. Iris looks good, too.

    Thanks for the kind words, fellas. randooch: Will pass along the compliments to Lydia. The beautiful stained-glass window was salvaged from a Lutheran church in rural Minnesota when it was replaced by the current, much larger structure in the early 1900s. Late 19th century vintage...
