The Open Road Guild
I own a modern 4x (2006) and a vintage Royal Deluxe OR as well as a Royal Stratoliner. The vintage I treat like vintage, reasonably nice weather etc. The modern 4x takes a beating. Like a Camp Draft it seems to actually enjoy the rain. The OR keeps getting softer with no down side. Compared... -

Baseball Caps (in moderation)?
Right now the only ball cap I seem to be inspired to wear is a repro 1964 Villanova an old buddy gave me for my 50th years ago. I have worked within a short walk of Mitchell & Ness for the last 24 years so I have picked up quit a few caps all fitted. Maybe a dozen Phillies form 1915 to 1980... -

Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame
A fellow at work and I were talking about hats. I told him finding my size on the bay and at vintage/antique shops in general was a bit of a challenge being a 7 5/8 XLO. THIS guy has a mega melon size 9. He was very interested in the idea of having Art make a hat for him. Would the conformer... -
