What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

[Tedquinton]

Thanks.

Size 7.

Alas not my size, almost worth having head reduction surgery for...

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Your wish is my command.

Looks like a beautiful hat, Baron. Would enjoy seeing its insides. I believe the Guild edge mark was introduced in the mid 1940s.

 

[alanfgag]

Lovely... thanks.

 

[Joao Encarnado]

Thanks on the compliments on that red Eddy Bros
My surname translated to english is... "Red"

Today i returned to that 4x Stetson. It's a bit floppy too much for my taste... maybe it needs a bit of steam to activate the shelac.

I almost can't tell your hat from the wall, Joao, nice though.
Sam, your daughter looks like she's gotten some good use out of that hat. And your CD is sharp.
Alan, lovely nutria. What's the vintage on that one?

 

[ManofKent]

Baron - that Dobbs is a beauty - shame it's tiny

Andy - nice looking wanderer. I need to try some lighter coloured felts.

Perry - great looking Stetson

Greg - I've contemplated head reduction surgery many times since I joined

Joao - a press through a cloth with a steam iron should sharpen it up. Looks good though.

Sam - great photo of your daughter and a great looking campdraft.

Wonderful Nutria Alan.

 

[alanfgag]

Thanks Perry and Richard.

Alan, lovely nutria. What's the vintage on that one?

Somewhere in the early 1930s I think.

If it had a wider brim... even so looks amazing.

Yes... bad background color for that hat.

Yes, my mother was ironing some clothing but was already ending because it had almost no steam at all. It only lasted to fix the brim of the Resistol Panda that arrived today.

Wearing a Vanzina outside one of my favourite second-hand bookshops after escaping a long meeting:



and if you were wondering about camera distortion in the background, this is the shop :

Great Vanzina Richard, but your picture's making me dizzy !

 

[alanfgag]

Love them both.

 

[hatsRme]

Super Vanzina, Richard. The bookstore must target the conservative reader, with the right-leaning doorway. Gotta love it!

Conservative goin' in, liberal comin' out!

Actually, it looks like the designer spent too much time on the bar stool when he drew up the plans.

 

[Miamibruno]

Actually, it was purposely designed that way so the people who WERE on the bar stool too long would be able to get in the door.

Great hat, Richard.

Alan - Fabulous.

Casechopper - I just got my son 2 new hats. He loves the Stetson Pork Pie the best. I think your daughter carries it off very well.

A tie for hat of the day!

Camilla looks like she was born to wear hats, Casechopper! Love that Snowy River!

That porkpie is perfect, MiamiB, and that guy knows how to wear a hat! Better put on the girl repellant, Handsome!
