What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Richard Morgan]

Tried out the new hats Mike (Redfokker) sent me in this edition the Holland-Oregon hat exchange. A great bunch of hats it is too! My thanks go out to Mike and to Mike Miller, who did a great job on one of the ribbons.

Wow 4 excellent hats in one day. The Westlite and the Sovereign are truly outstanding

 

[Richard Morgan]

Dug deep in the boxes today for Mass. came up with the Dalt-O-Liner, which hasn't seen much head time lately.

Feeling quite "Regal" under this one.

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

Love those Daltons

Hey all!
Wet and windy day. I don't really want to go out in this lousy weather, but I promised I'd go to Mom's and take her dog for a walk so out I go. This mid 80's fuzzy Borsalino that I bought NOS from Daniele fits under an umbrella and looks good with Army green. And is warm.

Have a great day!

Great colour, Richard. Looks like nice thin felt too.

thanks Stefan

Mike, thanks, it is a very nice hat. It does have a liner though it's a bit faded. Unfortunately, I did that soaking it in Woolite. It was dirty but still legible before cleaning so I know that the crest had a maple leaf instead of stars. There is an intact $10 price tag inside the sweat. Using the dating Stetsons by price thread, it seems that Playboys and Royal Stetsons in general were priced at $10 from 1949-1956. The maple leafs and price tag that is not OPS would indicate sometime between 1954 and 56. The only hitch is the lack of a plastic tip protector. There is not trace that there was one but I have to assume it was removed at some point.

Sweet looking Playboy Richard. Love it when the dating clues are extant!

Very sharp Bill. Love the tie. That Marathon is a real find, great age and super condition. Nice color too.

Great hat! Happy Birthday! Good to see someone else appreciates the finer things in life.

Bacon and Chocolate and Schnapps, life is good. I'll have to come back to reality on Tuesday.

With my Campdraft on a hike today.

Nice CD. Good haul on the Pheasant feathers!

Out in a bit of a thaw...

Way to make a comeback Alan! So good to see you and your collection again. This Bancroft is a showpiece.

It is holding up to the elements like a trooper. It is stormy here in Oregon today as well.

Just adorable, bit light for my colouring but you look amazing. I have a '53 light grey borsalino that I don't wear much cause it's too light. I can't remember why it's dated 53 but it was dated here. Best hat I have. I think we're the same size, it's a 57cm. It's a proper hat Alan. It's the only hat that gets the most comments. Do you have a comparable dark hat that wants to journey, cause this would look amazing on your crown?

I love u red. I may never post again but I do. I respect you. You act like my dad pretended he was brought up, and brought us up. I missed you. K

 

[Dlaniger]

Stylish as ever, Dlaniger! Must make a note of that colour.

Thank's, Steur!

 

[mayserwegener]

Yep! that's one gorgeous hat, Steve! 5 stars!

Thanks! I especially like this one too.

Love you too Brother. I hope this is a welcome back to the fold. We did survive, and you are a voice that was sadly lacking these past couple of months.

 

[Dlaniger]

D, the "minimalist eyeglasses" work great with the beard. Good look!

Thanks, Hurricane.

Nice.

Thanks, Bob.

 

[Joao Encarnado]

Verry nice hatband, Joao

It's original of the hat.
But thank you!

hey I might get kicked as soon as I get noticed, and somewhat deserved as I insulted someone so utterly stupidly, as didn't deserve it in any way, still n all i was wading through something last year, useless excuse, and you and well most others here helped me to stand the feck up. I kept looking back on that. I'll always miss Bob, if he's still banned, because he was lovely, and wore hats well.

Very nice Alan. Handsome full crown hat. I am partial to those longer hair finishes.

Water under the bridge my friend. You have made amends.

Thanks. One benefit of upland hunting is that it makes hat collecting seem very cheap. That’s my only hat with a feather so I decided to go big, but it’s best not to think of the price per feather, ha.

 

[Dlaniger]

Happy Sunday all. Running errands before the Eagles game.
