That's him! Thanks. His email address is:

Thank you for posting this, I may well wish to patronize this gentleman's services some day. I have a friend who looks rather well in bowlers and receives them gladly as gifts.

Does anyone know anything more about him, such as whence he learned the craft, how long he has been practicing and the quality of the materials that he uses?

And maybe what kind of prices he charges?

I've got three that I wear (though they're all back in Maryland right now). It's interesting the difference in weight, thickness and stiffness between the three. I can't remember off the top of my head which one I'm wearing in this picture.
