    Go to camera settings and go down the list and turn on voice control. FInd a suction cup phone holder or some sort of tripod and then get in postiion and say Cheese or capture or shoot or smile.

    I always have thought of trilbys as smaller dimensions, some snap to brim but no edge binding and no curl to edge of brim, and taperd crown. Homburgs have curled brim with binding and little taper to crown. Usually a center crown dent but the crown can be other bashes. When I look at that hat...

    Gannon hats are so good that if you got one in a color less to your liking then you'd change hair color, get colored contact lenses, and by a new wardrobe. The hat is not the problem.

    I never knew Dobbs were the go-to hats for downed fencing. I have been wearing Resistols for many of my fence downings in error. You learn such neat things on TFL.

    I guess that doesn't come with one of those "when you aren't wearing the hat store it upside down on the crown" foldout min pamphlets packed in the box.

    I have never seen a buffalo I'd pluck hair off of for a hair transplant. They always look like they have the frizzies.

    Sometimes you read of a hat that was converted and you feel a little sad. Not this time. I think it was sad that this hat was ever a Homburg living a lonely life on a closet shelf waiting for that dressy day it might get some use when all the other fedoras got picked. Great looking hat!

    Hat looks great on top of suit. The look of men everywhere 50 and more years ago.

    I'm curious as what 100% beaver blanks Bailey used in the 2000's till lately. I have had pure beaver in several makers' hats and several factory hats and The Baileys took abuse and repeated homebrewed rehabs better than the others and lived through them. They do shrink more then the others and...

    I lived in the area and remember Judge Johnson's mid 60's battles with Wallace and others. Those were turbulent times in the Heart of Dixie. They were also times of lots of fedoras on the heads of so many interviewed for news spots.

    Agreed. He would not be looked on kindly by many of the GOP of today as one of their own but his time was different and he was about justice for all with no exceptions. The 58 Plymouth is the newest one I can make out in the photo but it doesn't look shiny new so it is hard to date the photo...

    Here is why there are so many tiny and so few large vintage hats

    I remember that discussion of maybe 10 years back on here but can't find it. There were photos (or scans) of some hat invoices and it was heavy on 6 7/8 and 7 hats. There was some evidence presented, I think an article citing someone at a hat company, that their current production was heavy in...

    I LOVE the Reddy Killowatt pin on that great hat! You added it or was it already on that gem?
