Yes, I think they were out of NY. They were a pretty solid and stylish brand some years ago. I believe they outfitted Johny Carson throughout the '70s. I have a couple of pieces sitting in the closet too! You sure can find the good stuff.
Yes, they were a pretty big name through the 50s and 60s. Botany 500 was out of New York, but Daroff did the manufacturing in Philadelphia.

Excellent, Michael. As usual. I like the backfacing pinches on that hat.
Thanks Stefan. I think this one likes this crease.

I think I have a thing for these fuzzy hats.

Hard to go wrong with a fuzzy hat, and that one's a beauty.

Great looking cap, Dale. Hope the fish were biting.

Great looking suede finish, Jim. I'm warming to that finish and the self felt ribbon more and more.

Well, I guess I know what hat I won't be wearing today...... had just steamed and shaped it. Left in on the upstairs gameroom table then went to watch a movie in the theater room. Came out to find pup pup with a mouthful of straw. <sigh> the look on my face scared the crap out of her and she took off running, smart. I needed a few minutes to regain my composure . Guess I have a new Jed Clampet hat.

Thank you, Michael. I'm not too big on the felt ribbons either, but this one works.

Nice outfit today!
