Hey everyone!
Happy Birthday, moon!
A perfect day for a perfect fitting G.B. Borsalino fu Lazzaro & C. bowler on it's first wearing here in (sometimes) sunny CA.

There is something to be said for not having to worry about your crease or if your pinch is wonky...:)
Have a great day!
The derby looks great with the peacoat Moe. You and Matt are making a convincing case for getting my old derby out to play more often.

Sir, my wife, retired DVM, did a cursory eval. and says natural causes. My brother and I dressed the deer. The dressed deer meat went off to a local meat processor who promised to add it to sausage donations he makes for the Holidays. The remains went to be cremated. Truck washed and cleaned. Brother and I cleaned up and shared a cup of coffee. Several hours, but complete. Truth disclosed - I changed out to a stocking cap as the project was as expected messy.

Hoping for adventures of my choosing this afternoon.
Wow, that is a new one. Just your luck that your property is the place where he decided to give up the ghost.

So many great hats over the Thanksgiving Holiday! Well done everyone!

MM, that vented Bantam is especially sweet!

Okay, so I finally landed an Open Road that was "NOT" Silverbelly but a nice light grey

It's a 3X that was in serious need of a reblocking and flanging which didn't even take an hour to do. It's now pristine and was like a new hat otherwise. The pricing on vintage 7 1/2's and 7 5/8's has gone to the stratosphere! Don't see many new vintage hats in my future unless they're in need of some work like this one. Just saw a Bates go for $590. More than I payed for either of my Whippets. In fact it's nearly what I payed for both!
Glad to see you nabbed this beauty. Really love this shade of gray. Your restoration makes it look pristine. I am in awe of your mojo.

This is a great looking stiff felt. I especially like the curl on the brim, just enough to be snazzy!
