I love my late 40's to 50's Playboys & my Outstanding VS versions
But I have been looking for a original mid 30's for many moons
OK so in the past threads I did my homework & I can relax now in my quest for a mid 30's Playboy air-light

Good descript of modern caps 'amorphous shape'
My younger brother is a rock star & gets freebies from Kangol & Addidas , is it safe to say a NYC thing ?

Those cap videos still playing around ? Glad they were useful .
Yea you will...
I agree !
the hat received the full package treatment
I especially love the reverse taper & insane side dents, Ribbon is beautiful was it the original ?

I actually had a Dobbs CC lightweight a very long time ago as a youngster
there were too many 60s stingys around & I preferred the original taperless & tall stingys of the 30's & older
They were much easier to find 30 + years ago & I would flip the brim down all around & deep Butt...
Nice weekend of hats all looks like most are into felts & caps
