Here is my Bailey mustang, panama. When I got it, it was in excellent condition. After wearing it on some hiking trips, the sweat began to dry. I applied lexol and it is wearable, but on it's way out. I may replace the sweat.Thanks Terry

Great looking crease.This Miller Bros. "Sterling Beaver" was a gift from @Michael R (thanks buddy!!). Not sure of the beaver content, but the gold "wallpaper" applied to the end of the box implies that it was their top-of-the-line hat. This is the second crease I've put in it and it shapes easily. The felt feels amazing.

I really like that one HJ. I ended up putting side dents on my Stagecoach after comparing it to yours.Cool, beautiful fall day in store. These pics are from a couple months ago before the grass started to peter out for the season but I'll be wearing this Stagecoach Dry Gulch while completing some chores before taking to the woods with my dog for a few hrs of solitude.
Great fix-upNewly arrived 1950s Bailey U-Rollit "Saddle King" in Philippine Buntal straw.

Great fix-up
What a nice score. The weave is beautiful, and I bet it is very light. Some of Bailey's late fifties straws are excellent. Don't know for sure, but I would bet that is mid to late fifties.Newly arrived 1950s Bailey U-Rollit "Saddle King" in Philippine Buntal straw.
