That bow deserves to be seen again. And again.
Man, talk about variations on a theme! Take a traditional (some might even say "staid") hat, of a style usually identified with the quieter and more sober souls among us (bankers, etc.), and put a whole new twist (and your own personal stamp) on it.
Bravo, to you and the Maestro of Eagle Point.

"Monk" after Thelonious Sphere Monk not the great NFL wide receiver Art "Quiet Man" Monk.

A homburg in silverbelly with a stingy brim and high crown. Bound with silver grosgrain and a teal bow with accents of silver and crimson.

Hey, is that a River Rats game?

Oh, and I must thank you, and your hat - it got me thinking about Monk and I ended up downloading Thelonious Alone in San Francisco. Great album.

Very nice lid. That's the 1st Homburg I've seen that I really liked. Oh and Art, I just now noticed where you are located. I've got good friends that live in Eagle Point. I'm almost embarassed to admit it but I used to live in Gold Hill. I still follow the antics of their police department and city council online. Never a dull moment!

Gold Hill is an interesting town JC!!! It is STILL going on after recalls, re-elections, always drama. I'm new to this area (2 yrs) so I'm still learning the local politics. I actually live at the outer edges of Eagle Point, only 3 miles ( as the crow flies) from Butte Falls, but so far out that mail isn't delivered here.
Coming from the SF area the mountains are a greatful change of pace.

Thanks again for your interest Gents. I love working with WEEGEE, he let's me "play" with color and that's my forte`
