That is the nicest Adam hat I have seen. <ovation> -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
A rare (the only one I have seen) example of this brand - a pre-WWII Austrian fedora worn on this day some years ago by a younger man. The hat looks just the same today. Purchased from lounge member Mario whose retro B&W self portraits were always stunning. -

Turquoise/Native American jewelry
I have two similar rings from unknown silversmiths that feature handsome rectangular pieces of turquoise from Eureka County Nevada's No.8 mine. It produced a fine spiderweb turquoise with a recognizable signature during its years of operation from the late 1920s to the mid 1970s. I posted the...- alanfgag

Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns
Very interesting... the ad points to a silk underbrim as in this old hat. I never quite figured out what it might have been used for, but maybe rodeo/show makes sense. -

Another gray colored sweat from my wayback machine... I traded this hat with Joshbru some years back. -

Temperatures are rising today so a switch to a feather weight... Perry had a fine custom hat made that was inspired by this one I think. Not pristine but close to 100 years old and it still wears very well. -

Thanks Terry... this is one I purchased from our former member Zetwal quite a few years back. It's a little ample for me so I don't wear it too often. Your new custom hat is super, as always. -

Stetson Exposition Medals
Ah yes... I remember that colored sweatband. I had an Exposition hat some time ago that had the same. The sweatband in that one was quite fragile. Yours looks to be in much better shape. -
Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns
Just catching up on this thread - thanks for that note above. I always assumed the Real Nutria posted today had a six ply ribbon that was split to make the tails of the bow. Don't know why I thought that, but it is also clearly made from two heights of three ply ribbon carefully assembled to... -

Awesome addition. What is the color of the leather in the sweatband... guessing not as dark as it looks in the photos. -

Eric's answer makes sense. If you search Google Books for <Stetson kettle finish> you will find some references that suggest the "kettle finish" was offered as an option from the "smooth finish." This makes sense in this hat, which has bit of tooth to the felt finish. It goes well with the... -
