Had to wait til the end of the day to post this, busy day. In solidarity with the stellar Derby sported by Matt this morning, I switched to my 1930s Stetson Derby. I have named it the "Kerr Derby" after William Jasper Kerr, President of Oregon State in the early 20th century. We have some great images of derby wearing OAC Faculty. Topcoat is from the wife this Christmas, just in time for 20 degrees for the next few days.

Better late than never, it is still today for a little while. A multiple hat extravaganza day. Took my wife down to NW Hats to pick up my new creation from Mike, and she got measured for a hat. Now the decision process begins, at least there is a spark. Mike not only had my Olcott Homburg done, but some refurb work as well. He reblocked, flanged and put in a new sweat on a Royal Deluxe Stetson that my ham handed attempts at stretching made it look like it had a dunce cap taper. He also restored a Christy's Bowler that had a trashed liner and sweat. Now I have two more daily drivers. Got home and had to take a 3 hour nap to recover. Sorry for the delayed post. More in other threads.

If that's a 60, it should be shipped to Oregon, USA! Beauty!
Unfortunately it was a 58, so no luck for either of us I'm afraid. Gorgeous hat and in great condition - the same couldn't be said about the state of the box, but still nice to see them together. Loving the pics of you and your family by the way!

We should have such luck! Is it big enough for one of us?
Probably, but I didn't buy it. I don't know if they managed to sell it in the end. The asking price was on the high side, but I'm sure that was open to negotiation. I ended up buying a set of crystal champagne coupes from around 1900 instead. Can't wear them, but at least I can have a drink in style to console myself.
