Looks like a nice cap Eric. You probably need the espresso to brave the frigid weather, right?

Thanks Perry. Today we are relatively moderate winter weather it is 1'F and will warm up to 4'F. Above 0'F is good. I, perhaps like you, have been watching states of the US truly suffering with the unkown cold and snow. To many of us northern states folks when the temp gets down below 20'F we have to shut the windows while in Florida folks roll up in furs and shiver.;)

Lovely shape and color Steve. That feather looks exotic, I think it would stay if I had this hat. The liner is superb!
!
Mike, Thank you!

That's a exceptional Huckel Steve, just gorgeous
Richard, Thanks too!

That one is a show stopper Steve! Nice!

Harv, Thank you!


I love Huckel Hats even though I own just one. That lid you are wearing is simply outstanding!

Being a native of Florida, I concur wholeheartedly.

Thanks Moe. I think, given the weather, that a vodka shot, some caviar and a dill pickle might be more fitting. Loved your Whippet yesterday. Does it have Stetson written on the size tag or is it just the size?

Thanks,
Michael
LOL, you do look dressed for an outing in Siberia. That and a bowl of borscht sounds like proper fare.
Thanks for the kind words on the Whippet. You might be able to pull off a green hat with a purple shirt. Pics prove I can't!:)
The size tag just has the fraction.

Hey all!
The Jiffy serves as a forensic tool today, as a powerful blast of steam reveals that this Penn-Craft bowler was stored in mothballs at some point in it's long history. Phew! That might explain it's beautiful un-dined upon condition. At least it's not as bad as 80 year old tobacco smell.

The selfie cam on my tablet seems to be having a hard tine focusing as a (much needed) light rain begins to fall. Might have to rethink the outerwear.
Have a great day!

Kilgore special? I love it!
Its about 1/2 shorter at the brim and aboit the same 1/2 shorte on the crown than the Kilgore.

Also it has a centerdent crease VS the Kilgore's Military/Cattleman crease.

Its real nice.

The horseman pin is beautiful.

It has a crossed sabers cavalry badge along with a Private Rank Insignia, have been thinking changing this one for a Lt. Col. One but it might lool almost like the Kilgore!!

Happy New Hear Perry !!

The Kilgore is right at home. Has he been broken down to the enlisted ranks, or is this one new?

Today's cold weather finds me wearing a cap made out of Fox Brothers wool while sipping 3 shots of espresso.

Best, Eric -
Think of it this way, this weather is making you trot out your collection of great caps. Its all good...

With all the cigar smoke filled establishments of the past, it is a wonder this one does not have that historic odor. Sure looks nice now. Penn Craft as in made in USA, any relationship to J.C. Penny Marathon?

it has reached a balmy 10'F,so I'm getting some "honey dos"done in a Whippet.
Pace your self Bob, you could end up with heat stroke. Love the Whippet.

That 80 yr old tobacco is nasty for sure, but that's a dang nice bowler.

If you gotta do honey dos, at least you get to wear a hat, and a nice one at that.

Its about 1/2 shorter at the brim and aboit the same 1/2 shorte on the crown than the Kilgore.

Also it has a centerdent crease VS the Kilgore's Military/Cattleman crease.

That can be your "private" hat, eh? I like the horse pin too.
Happy new year to you Rodolfo.
