Mercury Imperial. Average felt, nice lines and color saturation.

I always preferred this one

Of course, there's the original (sort of)

Or the Finnish version (except it's BMW, not Merc)

Now, that one is my new favorite.

What a picker. Dude has played with everybody.

Les Paul's neighbor, Steve played a pretty good rendition as well.

Thank you, Steve.

Very nice, Randy.

That's it. There is writing and the price tag on the inside of the sweat. The liner has been removed and there are no other block tags or anything on the inside of the felt itself. I checked the stitching of the sweat and there is one stitch in every hole and no blank holes or overlap of holes and thread so it makes me think the sweat has not been removed or replaced but I could be wrong.

Inside shots?

Interesting!

Bob at Black Sheep also does the D'Orsay

Edit to add, yeah, Bob's curls are the best...but the queue is long!

That’s a great looking Hornskov, but it ain’t a D’Orsay!
I’ve come to prefer modern, more even pencil curls actually. Maybe they just work better with my self.

What fortune! My coworker was helping his father in law clean his closet, and out came this 100% beaver Stetson Baldwin! It is basically new old stock. Was given to him by a potential client, never worn, doesn’t fit him or my buddy, so now it is in my possession.
It was slightly crushed and a tad too big, but I have to say it is quite a first rate hat, especially after some fun with steam.

Didn't Finland just go bankrupt & their Prime Minister & entire Cabinet resign on the same day? So much for a BMW in every pot!

Nice. Congrats Jeff.

Not having luck with vintage Panama’s lately. Some crushing during shipping and it is too small (probably a 7-1/4).

Now why don't I have co-workers like that. Nice get, Jeff. It's so you, too.

That's a shame Bob, it's such a good looking straw. A bit of steam should help the bad shipping.

New in, reproduction Vintage Whippet. Sold as a Matt Deckard design for the Japanese market.

3 inch brim, 6 inch open crown with pretty soft and pliant felt, though not as fine as my 100% beaver Excellent Quality New York LE.

I like the bold styling, and bound brim.
