my cavanagh thrift shop find
I dropped in our local hospital thrift shop today. No good coats. No suits. nasty '70's ties. But up on top of the rack were two hats. There was a fedora and a slouch hat. The slouch was nothing to speak of- floppy wool felt- came from LL bean. but the fedora- I tried it on. It was a tad... -

Brent hats
I got my brents today. Amazing how fast they came. I really like them both. the brown/ green stingy I've shaped into a porkpie. The light grey one is great. It has a few minor moth nibbles- nothing serious. the color in the picture's funky- but it shows a little more than the ebay one... -

well- as of now, all my hats have been in person purchases. I finally took the plunge last night, and bid on these two Brent hats. I'm not too wild about the stingy, but I love the light grey one. It's got such a spiffy band. so- two hats for under 30 bucks including shipping. I'll see what... -
Diner Day at the Bay Way Diner
It's kind of late to post this now- but I forgot. There's a thing going down at the Bay Way Diner in Linden, NJ tomorrow. It's a cool little 9 stool diner that was just redone. It's very nice. I'll be there, as will the rest of Roadside Magazine. Looks like there will be some old cars as...- Dinerman

tie stretcher?
what the devil is a tie stretcher? I saw one at an antique store recently. Looked very old, made of metal, shaped like a triangle. Labeled "german necktie stretcher" why would you want to stretch a tie? pardon my ignorance, but I've just never heard of such a thing.- Dinerman

right handed hat wearers
I've been noticing with a majority of my hats that the dent on the right hand side (if you are wearing the hat) are larger than the ones on the left hand side. Has anyone else seen this. my guess is people handling the hat by the crown, bushing in with their thumb. -
and what would you call this?
I was cruising ebay, and I ran across this ad. What would you call this style of hat, or at least the brim. can't say I've ever seen anything quite like it. -
New old stock Adam... the first name in hats
do you ever see a hat somewhere you just can't leave behind no matter how many sizes away from fitting it is? I recently picked up the gorgeous Adam at an antique store in Hanover, PA. It's an Adam Premier Executive in a "chrome" color. Size seven. The tag in it reads "Adam- Premier... -

hat I didn't buy
well- I found two NOS stetsons today at an antique store. I was tempted, but they were just a tad too small. One was a light grey 1940's imperial stetson, and the other a 1950's stingy brown one. Both were 7- 1/8. Just too small. And each of 'em was 35 bucks. Not a bad price, but being a... -
J.W. Marriott Sr.'s Borsalino (my new hat)
Yep- I now am the proud owner of a Borsalino previously owned by J Willard Marriott. The shipping label on both the hatbox this hat came in as well as another hat in the same antique mall booth were both addressed to him. Even if it wasn't his hat, or there was another J.W. Marriott living... -
