What hat are you waiting for today?

Looks like you outbid me this morning. Congratulations, glad to see you got it! Apparently the ops tag dates it 1951-53.

Yes, I got it this morning.......so......it does look like it needs work and I am anxious to see the true color.
And, yes my understanding of the ops system tags as dating it 51 - 53 also because of the Korean War influence on the economy.
It DOES look like you have another nice hat on the way though so we both win!!!!

Since I missed that one, I had to get this one.

We sure do, I couldn't be happier, I really wanted that Topeka. I didn't expect to win the Westward, but put in a bid anyway. I am looking forward to seeing what you do with your Westward!

In my mind that black St Regis was already mine. I was wondering if it would be here in time for me to wear it on Sunday.

Let me know if you ever decide you want to sell it. You won't lose any money :)
 
Very nice! Great cool hat for summer. I have a Bailey Mustang in Panama. Bailey had some beautiful straws. Mine is in the Miller catalog of 1956.

Thanks Dd! Have you shared a pic of that Bailey on the Western thread?

Buntal western. Serious hat envy.

Wow! Never thought I'd cause that to happen. Thanks Greg!
