    A Montecristi 'Magnum Opus', My First Vintage Hat

    T Rick: Thanks, I saw that nice Stetson Panama, and I believe that a lounger picked it up. Lefty: That is a great old Stetson optimo. I looked around under the hood tonight and there are no tags or labels, just the pencil markings 'Taper Tel '. These pencil marks, dark and in boldly...

    A Montecristi 'Magnum Opus', My First Vintage Hat

    Thanks for the kind words, gentlemen! Alan: Lydia frequents estate and garage sales in our town, and has found some pretty amazing things over the years, but this hat is probably her greatest find! Lefty: I initially believed the hat to be a Stetson sold hat based upon the family's...

    A Montecristi 'Magnum Opus', My First Vintage Hat

    Indeed, Tomasso. Lydia always knew I liked hats, and bought the hat without any knowledge of what it was, or to whom it belonged. When the family learned that it was bought for me they told me that they could not be happier, as they knew that I would be as good a steward as their father was.

    A Montecristi 'Magnum Opus', My First Vintage Hat

    I would like to share with you my very first vintage hat, bought by my wife Lydia at an estate sale in our town for $20 some time ago, and before I joined the Fedora Lounge. As luck would have it, the hat belonged to the father of a physician acquaintance of mine, who himself was also a...

    How a Barbisio hat is made.

    Thank you very much for taking the time to post this, Ed! You always unearth the most interesting videos and other links and I just wanted to let you know that your efforts are most appreciated. I wonder if the original Barbisio factory would have looked as bright and modern as the Cervo...

    Alan: I really like that GP on you. I still think the GPs have a singular and distinctive presence and inimitable elan, despite Dan's aversion to them! ;) Nice new avatar, too, I was wondering how Lily feels with 6 year-old Sophie being in the limelight for so long. z: Beautiful Strat...

    Lovely Bantam, Alan, but I'm afraid your daughter steals the show. Very well done, Perry!

    The Disney Diner

    I was hoping others with a greater sample size of Disney and Borsalino hats would have responded to your question by now, but, since there have been no responses, I will chime in despite the fact I have only one Disney lid upon which to base my assessment. My Disney 15 is more similar to my...
