The Stetson Fortune and Glory went from open crown to a rough Indy bash in less than 10 seconds. Molds like soft clay. This Excellent quality beaver is thick and lush to the hand. No steam needed. 2 5/8 front and back dimensionally cut to 2 1/2 on the sides. Open crown is just under 6" creased to 4 1/2 in the front. My quick bash is certainly not screen accurate but who cares, I like it.

Very nice looking Stetson, Ken.

Echter Borsalino ""Qualità Superiore" probably 1930s. This is the second hat from a November 2012 find that was made into a Campaign Hat. It was also originally sold by Carl Kellner Hamburg. Unfortunately the fantastic sweatband is damaged. It's possible later stiffening contributed to the sweatband deterioration. Great bow design (it appears original) which I don't think I scene before on a Borsalino.

Today.....a hat by happenstance.
I grabbed this one just like you’re not supposed to, high on the front crown and the pinch stayed.
So i’m wearing it awhile.
Prob one of the last One Hundreds that was still pretty nice. I guess.
Be well. Bowen

You got to give that crease a name! All the kids are going to trying to duplicate it.
