Rodkins - Exceptional - Absolutely magnificent hat, and works perfect for you.
Congratulations.
And another WELL DONE Mr Fawcett.
Only have a modest 1936 steel case black Western Electric 302.
Have used it for years cuz I just couldn't abide the digitals my saintly wife likes.
Plus it's the same one that was in my Grandparents house.
Use it every day.
The sound & the feel of a great old phone just cannot be beat.

I found Glenmorangie on a trip to England in '78 & the rest is history
I've tried quite a few tastey singles & blends over the years but I always...
Picked up a Keneth Cole man bag about a year & a half ago - Looks like a distressed vintage khaki gas mask case with shoulder strap - Not expensive - well made - holds a ton o stuff very manly & goes with anything other than formal.
That being said
I have always chuckled privately when I see...

and for a real...
Sorry I missed chiming in before. It was because of Colby Jack's Akubra Overload thread that I found the Lounge. Because of him I fell in love with wearing a proper hat. Thank's for all the sage advice here on the Lounge, and thanks for inspiring me to start this new passion.
Condolences to...
Good List & THANKS.
Only one that has me confused with all the hoopla here on the lounge is that the Stylemaster didn't make the top ten. But then again I am pretty certain the list reflects the far more immense sales in country and as a "working" hat rather than the rest of us out here...
The ONLY way I can get pics to load here is I first set up a free photobucket account & uploaded the pics to there - Then when I hit the insert image tab on the toolbar here I cut & pasted the ENTIRE URL from my photobucket page on the prompt. It did not work for me using my digital camera...

Each and every one. Someday - someday - Thanks to all of you for posting your beauties - it gives those of us who are Art-less ideas - inspiration - and a preponderance of eccess drool.......
OK ----- HATS :D
All kidding aside - I found this forum a year & a half ago while researching what else -- HATS.
I have purchased a few proper gentlemans hats in that time. Before that - Ball caps & straws. (When you wear Hawiian shirts 365 I thought that was all I could pull off). WRONG -...

Sharing and learning is what message boards are for. I have posted to message boards and have been forum leader since the days of compuserve before most people even knew what an email address was. Here is a good site by an artist friend who started drawing

I have been lurking here at The Fedora Lounge for over a year now, since I got my first Akubra, and decided I could finally carry off a "Gentlemen's" hat.
I have enjoyed the Lounge very much, & just recently started a little more active posting.
Some of the most enjoyable reading I have had...
