    What are you listening to?

    So the plumbers finally left yesterday, what started out as a kitchen faucet replacement grew into a new bathroom and water heater. They did a great job, but I can't get this out of my head now. Well, the toilet went crazy Yesterday afternoon The plumber he says "Never flush a tampoon!" This...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Commander by Mallory for a trip to the office. Taking a page from my state mate Terry, a little appropriate music for the occasion, the Ol' Commander, God rest his soul.

    A gifted Vintage Stetson hat

    Sounds like you're a long oval. You can try the hat stretcher, but be very careful and do it a little at a time, if you do. You heve a very nice old hat there, and I'd hate to see you pop stitches or damage the sweatband. Not sure where you are, but if you have a hatter nearby, you might give...

    A gifted Vintage Stetson hat

    True. I'd figure that was at least a $25-$30 hat in the 50s. Don't hold me to that, tho.

    A gifted Vintage Stetson hat

    Yeah, most likely mid-50s or so. There might be some info on price points in the Nutria thread. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/the-official-stetson-nutria-quality-thread.55014/

    A gifted Vintage Stetson hat

    As LC says, not enough info. If you read through the Lounge, there are several threads discussing age estimates of Stetsons. If you can provide photos of all sweatband markings, the interior lining, and any tags we can take a stab at it. Also, look behind the sweatband for any labels; they're...

    Three masters of their craft stretching it out. Worth a bump in volume. Frank Zappa - Guitar Jack Bruce - Bass (fuzzy!) Jim Gordon - Drums

    I'm still working out the details for a successful deep fried Reuben-on-a-stick. State Fair, here I come!

    Ask a question, get an answer

    I kinda think the box might be older than the hat.

    Royal DeLux two-tone, for when you can't decide which shade of grey to wear.

    Musician's hats

    They do put on a good show, but to me, it isn't the same without Mark Farner. In fact, having seen GFR with Mark and without him, as well as Farner on his own, I'd drive past a GFR show if Mark was playing down the street. I know, I know...:D

    The Non Shorpy Web All Stars.

    Crappy copy of a photo from a newspaper, but I dig the strat-like hat in the foreground. Opening day at Crosley Field in Cincinnati, 1957.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Seems to be a Homburg, and may very well be a bit large, but I couldn't let it sit there at that price.

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    I think it's in The Grateful Dead Movie that Mickey and Bill are having a mock argument "I'm the drummer, and he's the percussionist." "No, I'm the drummer, and you're the percussionist!" The night I saw Genesis, on the Elliptical Mirrors tour, they had both Phil Collins and Ralph Humphries...
