    Jack, you need to start with one of these for your BTK hat, they are perfect for the job.....an officers Hardy hat, they had higher crown than the enlisted version and typically were bound edge which the enlisted version is not. There are some good makers out there that do a good job with...

    Good source for Vintage Watches?

    The catalog/ad name....I only have a couple of Hamiltons....I am heavy into Boluva's (there is a site dedicated to them) and we compare our watches to the retail listings and ads and service manuals that are available and often arrive at the actual model name (also most Boluva's are actually...

    Wolfbrae Custom Hatters

    It is a crease style I am fond of using on some of my Homburgs and Westerns......and well..... in this case a Fedora. Of course each is somewhat different.....Interestingly my 50's 7xCB OR came with a modified version.....so I did not feel a need to change it. :) Sorry for the...

    Wolfbrae Custom Hatters

    No, a VERY DEEP blue (think Navy Pea Coat) that is darn hard to photograph........Ribbon is just about two tones down from that....and that liner is a matching blue to the felt.

    Wolfbrae Custom Hatters

    I just realized I never posted this from last year.......a custom I had Robert make up for me as a trade for a 50's OR Royal Deluxe I had....I am quite pleased! Love the felt finish and had a nice crown height so I could make a fairly deep modified center dent. Creased fore and aft as was...

    Your percolator sounds like a "Coffee Robot".....those are pretty cool looking. I actually don't have one but do see them around. Here is an internet picture of one....made by Farberware.

    Western, anyone?

    I found this Bee hat listed on the bay...I have not bid, it is size 7 1/4....I just thought the crease quite interesting....looks quite deliberate rather than accidental........Does have a cool red liner too....

    Western, anyone?

    Feeling a little country today with my private label (probably Resistol) dark Sage "TRAILBLAZER as "Styled by Peters" and sold at "The Corral" in Tyler. I love the red lining and sweat bow in this....I wish the dogbone crease with counter dents showed up better....it is higher and tighter than...

    Eisenhower LOVED hats!!! I have several pictures in my collection of Ike, with hardly the same hat shown more than once......he wore quite a variety of styes too......(some kind of goofy, but fit the occasion).

    Vintage Coffee Makers

    Yes....those Vac Pots are my favorites and most often used. I use the Sunbeam Coffeemaster C30A (made in the 40's) almost everyday as it is an automatic. When I have more time the 30's Silex Delray hits the stove as shown.....I actually like to use the Revere ware percolator to make tea, has a...
