My "whipped" Whippet arrived. At least I can say I owned one...

I'm guessing this is '50s, but I'll let others who know better correct me if necessary.

Looks like it might have been from Harry Coffee's clothing store in Fresno or Bakersfield, CA.

Not my size so I'll probably put it up on the 'Bay at some point for someone who needs a project.

I'd say mid 50s ... the early side of the mid 50s ... if that makes any sense
and I bet you will get that thing looking more than respectable
can't wait to see

Thanks Ant. Getting that crown of feathers off was a good start.

It is indeed a project. A real barn (Chicken Coop) find. There is a beauty in there somewhere! This should be a fun ride.

Yes, that one looks very fixable. Is the sweat serviceable?

The sweat is still flexible with a some micro-cracks starting at a few stitches. Some Bick-4 should help.

Pedigreed no less. Is this a Beaver Hats brand? Seem to be similarities with the Beaver label.

The only ID and I haven't found anything mentioning it yet, except that there was a Willner Bros clothing store that opened in Des Moines Iowa in 1906.

I never thought I would ... but I'm loving this style straw.
In a Felt I would never wear this style... but there is something about it in a straw that I feel.

here's my Knox

The hat is in crazy good condition

Why anyone would write their name over a crest is beyond me.. but anyway

Cool. No massive hat collection would be complete without a silver 1950s milan. But let's be Frank...

Thanks for prompting me to look at mine. Also from Woolf Bros. Slightly more restrained customer personalization. Woolf had a store in the historic Country Club Plaza in Kansas City near Jack Henry (seller of the homburg I posted earlier this week). Cool beans!

ps... Brad once said that Frank wore his in Cavanagh.
