    I’m digging the “worn” look too. Just a question if the cold blue holds up to your expectations Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Commercial 1917. Frame built for the WWI contract, but wasn’t completed until after the war ended, sometime around 1920. I recently acquired another 1917, a US Army, which has its barrel replaced at some point, and I plan to cut to “Indy length” [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Indy hat post em up

    It’s a commercial 1917. Frame built for the WWI contract, but wasn’t completed until after the war ended, sometime around 1920. I have another US Army 1917, which has its barrel replaced at some point, which I plan to cut to “Indy length” :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Indy hat post em up

    Raiders, by John Penman. Wonderful felt, about as close to my nicer vintage felt as I’ve found in a modern hat.

    This was a Gunbroker find. The listing and photos really did it’s condition injustice, so I got it for much less than I expect I should have haha. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Yes, it’s a commercial model, built sometime prior to 1922. The frame was built for military use, and still has the eagles head inspectors mark inside the yolk, but after the war ended, pistols such as this one were completed and sold commercially. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Haha yes, understandable. I’m now searching for one that has already been “mucked with”, so I can muck it up further with a mostly guilt free conscience :) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I had plans to cut the barrel on this M1917 to 4” ala a true Indy pistol, until I received it and realized what good shape it was in. It would be a crime to cut such a fine antique, so the search continues for a bargain priced beater 1917 :) Shown with my Raiders hat from John Penman.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Raiders hat by John Penman, a 25 year process... from a leather “Australian style” hat I had as a kid pretending to be Indiana Jones (I didn’t know better, I was 10)... to a generic crushable felt fedora (I was on the right track, but still young, naive, and uninformed)... to an officially...

    The Claylike felt of a Dobbs Forty...

    Snagged this Dobbs Forty a few years ago, and it was dirty, crumpled, stained, and the ribbon was an unatractive grungy yellow. But man was the form-able felt incredible! I sent it off to Art Fawcett, who reblocked it, cleaned it as best he was able, and replaced the sweatband, ribbon and liner...

    1950's Dobbs Fedora, Grey 7 1/2

    Have a wonderful Dobbs fedora for sale, marked and fits like a 7 1/2. The color is a lovely caribou grey. Rolled edge, and has been given an attractive teardrop crease. It is in wonderful condition, with no moth damage, stains, or noticeable wear. Interestingly enough, the seller I purchased it...

    1930's Dobbs Derby

    I'm told, from other forum members, that this hate was made no later than the 30's. It is in great shape for its age, but is unfortunately missing the sweatband. The felt, ribbon, and liner however are in impressive condition. Art Fawcett has told me he would be able to install a new sweatband...

    FS: Akubra Federation IV Deluxe, brand spankin' new size 61

    Just received this Akubra Federation IV hat today from Australia, but sadly, it is too large for my head. Given that shipping to/from Australia is so expensive, I'm hoping I can recoupe most of my expense so that I may order another. This hat is brand new, and has only been unboxed, placed on...

    FT: 1930's Dobbs Derby 7 3/8

    This hat is in very good shape for its age, but is unfortunately missing its sweatband. The felt, binding, liner, and ribbon, however are all in surprisingly good, clean shape. marked as a 7 3/8 I have no idea the value of this hat, but am told by fellow lounger's its no older than the late...
