    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    A final installment in the montecristi chronicles of summer 2023... a hat from Arthur Stevens shop in Boston.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Not the finest montecristi in my collection, but pretty fine and one of the prettiest, I think. It must have had an interesting tropical early life (1940s, perhaps) and retains a small open wound which has been treated as best as I could.

    It's time to get the linen and straw out and about. This Royal Stetson montecristi is not fine but it's a dandy. Included is a close look at that late 1930s bifurcated logo... a somewhat odd and complicated design that always puzzles me a bit.

    A rather bodacious leghorn straw from Supernatural... something about it reminds me of the hats Johnny Weismuller wore in the Jungle Jim movies - probably about the same time. @T Jones ... ever come across this store?

    What to wear to Barbie? Why a Brighton Rainleigh, of course. Interesting waterproof machine made straw that had a brief run during the depression era. A gently used railway ticket was discovered under the sweatband.

    Nice afternoon for our first 2023 visit to the flea market today... waded through a number of the usual derbies and boaters but found one to take home. Diminutive dimensions (4.5" crown, 1.5" brim front and rear, 1.25" side to side) with a beautifully finished d'Orsay curl, ironed flat and...

    <smile>... he's actually been pretty gentle when in the hat room. The shelves go down to the floor so an easy grab and go if he has a mind, but so far his attention has been diverted by other crazy stuff we collect and keep around the house. I don't expect it will be as easy with our little...
