Y'all may recall Jimmy the Lid landing this beauty out of the Bay even tho I was casting my line vigorously against him. I seldom cast down into the vintage 7 1/2 size pools but these rare 100s get my attention. Well there is some justice in the Universe as the Chief landed another pristine Stetson 100 that fit his pin-head better than this one. So knowing I was the victim of his sniping ways, he offered this Stetson 100 to me with the notorious Jimmy the Lid teardrop crease applied. MANY thanks to Jimmy for his generosity but now I have to change my Holy Grail desires!!!

Today, I creased my new Royal DeLuxe Stetson Open Road. I tried several different creases including a diamond but it just seems that the fedora style OR is just made for the center dent with side dents, so.....here 'tis!

Tom -- I just can't tell ya how great that 100 looks on you! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap It was a bit big on me, and, after I found another 100 that fit just right, I just couldn't live with the prospect of that lid sitting on the shelf. The felt is absolutely to die for -- but, dammit, that lid was meant to be worn, and not to be part of some Stetson petting farm here in Michigan...:eek: :D Suits you perfectly, and I'm glad that it has now found the right home. Wear it in good health, my friend. :)

Cheers,
JtL

Thanks to all for the props on the OR. I am trying to use the info JTL put on the Open Road Guild thread to date it. I must say I'm very happy with it!

Picked these up several months ago, but haven't put them up.

Stetson Custom V

Stetson Stratoliner

Disney. Wonderful felt, great feel, but it just isn't me. I may sell it. It is a size 7 stretched sometime along the way to between a 7 and 7 1/8. Still a beauty.

This hat is a rework of a pre 1934 hat ( United Hatters Union label ) Cleaned, re-blocked (same style) Used the original sweat band (marked The G.W.P.Hat,Co. The prior hat) came without a satin so I put one into the hat. I have found no information about the company, so if anyone knows anything about them let me know. thanks; Black Jack
