    What do I now have? "Celluloid coated Pamama"? 06/04/1931

    Very good counsel, many thanks. Mr. Thompson is just the man for the job, I am sure. I have heard tell of antique nitrate billiard balls exploding at a hard break! To say nothing of the film stock that has resulted in untold loss of so many cultural treasures! :mad: Do ya' think eighty...

    Anti-Anti Baseball Cap League?

    I am jake w/ it as long as it is not turned back (unless you are a catcher) or, worse yet, sideways (the universal sign of idiocy.)

    What do I now have? "Celluloid coated Pamama"? 06/04/1931

    Penn-Craft Celluloid 1931 Panama-style hat - never worn ...And to whom should I send this to for a sweat & blocking? [huh] Evidence seems to show it was , in some fashion, a division of STETSON. However it seems to have grown from a self-help co-op community founded by the Quakers in...

    Yeah, I got what I think is a Whippet bearing the Shudde Bros brand & I recall it having been stated that Stetson provided Shudde w/ their house brands.

    Liner swap

    I have a chance to snag a gamebird (w/ liner) measuring 6 7/8 to replace the missing liner of a linerless gamebird that fits my 7 1/4 - 7 3/8 noggin. Do you think the size disparity between the two would make this impractical? [huh]
