Turquoise/Native American jewelry
I posted a couple of pieces by Sam Roanhorse a few posts above. I am a big fan of his work. Recently I found someone online showing a mid-century bracelet and was able purchase it. With the mails the way they are recently the transaction took longer than expected, but it arrived yesterday.- alanfgag

A supernatural leghorn straw from the Ecuadorian Panama hat Company. The shop in Columbus appears as an advertiser in the programs for the Ohio State/Michigan games... back in the days when the school up north would win every once in a while. -

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
You’ve got quite the museum yourself Max, with some stunners I can vouch for personally. So sorry to hear this Joe. It’s a deeply complicated experience at any time... in these times even more so. A safe hug to you and your family. -

If you or any member can share a hat stamped Open Road that left the factory with other than a bound brim or 3/8" ribbon I would be in your debt. I have seen Miller-Stockman advertise a 3ply ribbon on an Open Road, but have not seen such a hat in the flesh. thanks! Alan -

I've misunderstood your observation. In identifying differences between a western hat and a "dress western" hat I think of Fedora Lounge differentiation between a hat with a narrow ribbon and a brim of 3" and over (western) and a hat with a bound brim under 3" and a 3/8" narrow flat ribbon... -

Hatless
Wow... Bowen, same joy. Thanks to all for the good wishes. It is a special joy and privilege for us to be able to be here with our family to celebrate and help them through the first days of a new baby. I can hardly wait to pass on my antique little kid baseball cap.
