Thank you, my friends. Some people’s opinions mean a lot and you’re both at the top of my list.

Thanks, Bill. It’s probably as close as I’ll ever get to the blue Whippet I sold you.

I don't think that Whippet was ever delivered ... Brad.

Sorry, Bob…don’t know how I mixed you two up: it went to @Bill Hughes
The next one I find in 7 1/2 has your name on it.

Akubra Pilbara in Recency Fawn. I reshaped the crown with a teardrop, hand rolls, and a tight pinch. Finished with a Southwestern-themed leather hatband and charm.

^^^^ Nice setup @Lobo Rojo ! The second pic reminds me of Mort in Bazooka Joe (that probably makes me old).

MORT??? That's that character's name? Mort? How did I not know that until just now?

LOL. I was thinking the same thing. And I chewed a lot of bazooka joe as a kid and read a lot of those wrapper comics LOL

The Barbizona looks wonderful, but I really like the simple style of this Lee.

What I like the most about it is that it seems brand new everywhere. I wonder how Roberto finds them.

Must have got his hands on that time-machine that Justin had

Upon returning from holidays, a series of packages arrived in my absence, was waiting for me.
One I had given up for lost, another risked getting lost and others were waiting for me with their almost mysterious contents.

Three black hats, two certainly ancient, one is to be studied. Starting from the left: a Borsalino lobbia, a G.B. Borsalino bowler hat and a Flechet in black velour.
It is an anticipation, more news and photographs will arrive in the next few days.

 

[StrawBunyan]

Swore I wouldn't buy a second hat.
My Akubra is great around the farm and in the woods etc but I went to town with the family the other day and it proved a bit ***bersome sooooooooi present to you my new Stetson Stratoliner S.E. in Sage

WOW. What a great hat.

A very classic Lobbia Borsalino in light and malleable black felt

Its peculiarity is that it was sold by a shop in Genoa, Sartoris, which has its own brand as a brand in the lining and not that of the Alessandria hat manufacturer.

Borsalino Qualità Extra Extra Superiore quality, the size measures approximately 58 centimeters or a 5 1/2 in the Borsalino measurement system.

There is no a tag size. and the internal measurements being 20.3x16.5 centimeters

From its features and dimensions: the curled brims are 6 cm., the ribbon is 4.8 cm and the crown at its lowest point is 10 cm seems to come from the 1950s

The paper label said us the type and nothing else, also because I don't want to force the sweatband which has some fragile seams

A very elegant homburg with a special felt for its softness and malleability

A timeless classic

I haven't posted in FOREVER, but thought this was an appropriate occasion. I've been growing out my hair, head and facial, since the last time I posted. None of my other hats fit anymore, or look right on me, thanks to the long hair. I visited Jaxonbilt Hat Company last fall. Had a great conversation with the owners, and loved the shop. Roy fit me for a hat that I was inevitably going to order. Well, a few months later, I ordered it. It arrived yesterday...and it is magnificent! My first bowler.

You could do him proud! Carradine did my favorite Hickok, followed by Jeff Bridges for a close second.
