I wore my Borsalino today; ran into a guy at the bank who was also wearing a Borso, but his was from the late 1990s. We had a nice chat.

Happy Hat Day!! (Yes, I am missing one, as it is residing on the 'work bench' waiting for a nice cleaning and ribbon.)

From top to bottom:

Modern Cap
1930s Campbell Homburg
1930s Stetson Special Fedoburg/Homdora (It's a homburg conversion, happened before I aquired the hat... and new hat conversion term??)
1930s/40s Knox Homburg (This is a tricky one, that has stumped some of the dating experts here!)

Hey, even the devoutly religious celebrate special Holidays!!

This calls for the ritual sacrifice of a cheap woolly (lamb). [emoji1]


Sent directly from my mind to yours.
I have a woolly Bailey ready for the ritual on the altar right now. Anyone know the chant or cantor required for the ceremony? I'll be sporting a nice Bowler to church today, letting everyone know it is OUR holiday!
