I’ve got a list of TFLers I want to buy hats from. Bob is on the list lol

This is my last felt Borsalino - at least until I find one from 1937 that fits me

I got this one from Jeff because I was annoyed that my 61 was too big, thinking at the time that they were very similar hats, but they are actually quite different.

Obviously, different ribbon treatment, but they are also slightly different colors of brown, and the felt on this one feels just a hair more substantial, or maybe they used just a bit more stiffener. I guess it's possible they were shaped on different blocks, but I'm no good at figuring that stuff out. the 60 has a slightly smaller brim width.

They both are from that gold-sticker, multi-size era, though I don't know how long that ran, they both have the mode edge stitching and they both have the little wind cord detail. Same badging, same liner, for the most part, though the 60 has an actual street address in the liner.

My escapades this morning had me selecting some Stetson Stratoliners.

A dog soirée was enjoyed wearing a Stetson Stratoliner. This brownish hued hat has a dynamite felt.

I headed out in the 56'f (14'c) temps for a walk through the local forest reserve. I donned a Stetson Stratoliner.

Home I chose a different Stratoliner for a trip to the bakery and a stroll sipping coffee.

It has been a thin ribbon morning.

Below is a comparison pics of the first couple early morning hats.

Cheers, Eric -

A simply smashing sampling of splendid Strats, Eric!!

Stetson Sovereign Twenty OR that I picked up from a fellow lounger. Was pleasantly surprised to see it was purchased at a small family owned store in neighboring Kansas, from a town in western Kansas, Ulysses, named after the President.

EXCELLENT score!!!

Knox Vagabond. If you could make the perfect Florida summer time felt … this might be it. The sweat might be a bit worse for wear but you take these however you find em!

Anton Peschel Neutitschein (Nový Jičín), "Kristall", possibly mid to late 1930s. This Soft Felt Hat is from my nine hat 2021 German source Czechoslovakia Hat Store find.

Anton Peschel Neutitschein (APN) Metal Display Plate (7 cm x 3.5 cm), possibly 1920s. I found it back in 2022.

It was a maintnance day yesterday... Did some cleanup and shaping on the Hemp Open Road, and had some work done on the beard. Both look better in the early morning light today. Hat no longer looks like a Good Will hat shipped in a bag, and the facial hair have moved from moonshiner towards civil war general

Relaxing morning under a Stetson 10X Shantung OR.

had some work done on the beard…the facial hair have moved from moonshiner towards civil war general.

My vote would be for either Gen Albert G. Jenkins or Major Gen Lafayette McLaws, with honorable mention to James Longstreet & JEB Stuart.

Jenkins
