What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

[Blare]

Nice one, Joe!!! Does it have a greenish cast to it?

Thanks Mark. Yes, one of those greenish color shifters.

Open Road day this morning

First time actually wearing this one out, the hat of choice this weekend, a 1930's Hückel Superior.

Jeff, Great to see it in action!

The Mason hat was made by the Susquehana Hat Co., who are no more. They were bought up by Gamble & Gu-nn. Do you recognise my bow tie? There's a matching Aloha shirt. Tina made the tie from the shirt's offcut.

Great ensemble! I’m curious to know if the name of the hat, Mason, was named after an individual, or is it a nod to the fraternal organization of Free and Accepted Masons?

The colors at the pond are close to peaked. Glad I could be here for it this year.
To keep with the earthy sense of Autumn, here’s a Borsalino Alessandra thin ribbon today.



Yesterday… I did not (could not) finish this “medium sized” ice cream wearing the same hat.

A man has to know his limits.
Have a safe weekend!

Would you believe that Sus quehanna named their hats after Abbott & Costello characters. Look up The "Susquehanna Hat Company" sketch, also famously known as the "Bagel Street" or "Flugel Street" routine.
The routine weaves together a fictional business, the comedic destruction of various hats including fedoras, and the duo's signature slapstick timing.

Sartorially stunning, as always, Robert!

I’ll check that out this evening. I watched a little Abbot & Costello as lad but don’t remember much except the ever popular “Who’s On First” skit.

Thank you Mark, I passed your comment onto my lady, the maker of my bow-tie.
"Sartorial," she teased, Sartorial is just a fancy word for spending more time in front of the mirror than I do.

Stetson Bantam Air Light is doing it for me today. Late 30's or early 40's with Lot #7102. Until this one came to me I had never laid eyes on a Stetson size tag like this.

TREMENDOUS

Absolutely magnificent hat, Alan!!!!

Thank you for the notes and likes on this one. Some old timers might remember that this old Boss was completely restored by one of our long time members and then gifted to me by another. It has a special place in my hat room - I think of them both every time I put it on.

I just got this dark green BRONER " AUTUMN" in from eBay and am trying it out after making a new band for it.

so far it seems like a winner, just might be my new outdoors hat for fall and winter.

 

[TimmyV]

Nice’n, Timmy!

Thank ya sir !

Stay safe and keep it between the ditches.... Look forward to tales from the road when you can

Thanks Rick. Not too many tales from the road for me these days. The company I run for is mostly a Midwest company and that makes for mighty dull driving. The pay is great, though, and that's top priority right now, so I won't complain. Sure would love a load to carry me out west over the mountains, though!

Until next time. Safe travels.

Thanks Jeff!
