fountain pens
Pelikan 25 Jahr NORD/LB This is my current favorite. Deep Blue, almost black under florescent but in sunlight is deep ocean blue. A beautiful pen. Limited edition of 6,920.

fountain pens
For travel, specifically air travel, Pelican gets my vote. I have large hands, so the 800 series works well. No leaks, behaves in all conditions, feels good in the hand and writes perfectly each and every time. I really like the Omas 360, great feel in the hand, but can't deal with the cap...- FLJones

What's the point?
high price of whippet Gentlemen, as the soon to be new owner of the hat in question, let me add my 2 cents. Like any auction on ebay, you can end up in a bidding war. Difficult to predict the popularity. Having lost a few, I decided I would go for it. There have been others in better shape... -

Fedora's in hot weather?
I live in Miami and find there are only a few times of the year it's comfortable to wear a felt hat. Generally I find straw hats to be much better and save wearing the felt's for travel out of the state. -

Puerto Fino hats?
re: Puerto Fino Can't tell you how they rate vs vintage, as I am new to the vintage pursuit. The store is located in North Miami. The hats are made in Columbia. I have a bunch of Puerto Finos, both felt and straw. Nothing really top end but great hats for a good price.
