The pilgrim has ended it's pilgrimage from the great white north to balmy Atlanta. Fit is perfect, the color is a beautiful chestnut brown. I doubt I could beat the above pictures but I'll try tomorrow. The felt is pliable and very malleable. The sweat has separated in a small portion, but no biggy. It definitely scratches my stratoliner itch. I was ready to bite on a modern premier strat, but no longer. Thanks to Cane Rod Maker for selling this beauty to me.

My new Pilgrim. Anyone care to speculate on the age or color name? To my eye it's more grey than tan, but the camera seems to see it both ways depending on the light.

Interior parts need some work, the felt is in most excellent condition. More pictures on the Flickr page.

The only work I'm envisioning at the moment is that the lining is loose and needs to be reattached. The sweat has definitely seen better days, but it will do for now. And probably until I learn how to replicate gold leaf on leather stamping. Ha ha.

Might as well put this one here.
I found it today at a thrift store. The condition is near mint. I think it's 50's. Crown is 5 1/4" open, brim 2 5/8". Onionskin liner tip protector.

Nice quality felt and good workmanship. Not bad for a house brand hat!
