HAT ADORNMENTS: ribbons, bows, pins, pugs, leather, etc.
Interesting. There's a lot more information out now than there was a couple of years ago, when I last Googled it. This seems to be the organization (same logo): http://www.campfireclub.com/ But you can't get to any info without logging in. As for the queer contest, I'm all for 10... -
Stratoliner Memorabila Collection
Heh. It's about 42" x 32" in the frame (which doesn't add much). The problem with framed art is that it's hard to get back the cost of a frame. But more to the point, I love that poster. Even more relevant, my partner likes it, and not many other hat-related items I have. It's not...- feltfan

The Camp-Fire Club of America Gold Button Anyone know more about the Camp-Fire Club of America? Apologies for the large image, but there's a lot of detail. I received this pin mounted to the front of the crown of this hat: I'd complain, but the pin is 14K gold and kind of... -
Stetson Stuff
Posted a pic with flash in the Golden Era Stratoliner thread This is a large promotional poster, apparently backed on the original cardboard. I had it framed. This no flash image does have the reflection of my hall light, which arguably gives a better sense of scale. -
Stratoliner Memorabila Collection
Should this be here or in the Hats thread on Stetson stuff? I'll put a different picture in each: one with flash and one without. This is a large, original promotional poster, on what appears to be original cardboard backing. I had it framed.- feltfan

My three watches From left to right: Vulcain Cricket manual alarm watch (1940s?) Omega Seamaster automatic (late 1950s to early 1960s?) Lord Elgin manual "digital", 1950s. The Vulcain Cricket is a very handy watch. It's the ultimate travel alarm. Plus it is a mechanical alarm...- feltfan

The Bowler or Derby Hat
Where I saw 'em, people chew on nutrias. And I gotta say the one I saw looked like a rolling mudball. They move fast when there are gators in the water. -

The Bowler or Derby Hat
I've seen 'em in the flesh. But the animal on the logo appears to have a padded tail, like a beaver. Also it's gnawing on wood. -
Replacing sweatband?
As the tearer of that hat, let me add a few points. First, sweatbands don't always tear in the process of stretching. I believe I failed to treat the band with Lexol or similar leather treatment before stretching. But more to the point, that sweatband, and, it appears, yours is perfectly... -

The Bowler or Derby Hat
I thought the hats with the Chestnut St address on the sweat had stamped dates on the inside of the sweat? I guess not all of them. Am I confused, or is that a picture of a beaver with the words, "Made of real nutria fur"? Great hat box, BTW! Thanks for the photos! -

Post New Hats Here!
I agree. And I have a Stetson 3X (Mode Edge) of around the same vintage (same liner and logo). At first I didn't tumble to its quality. Now I realize it is a truly remarkable hat. Those 3 Xs are superior to any Xs you find around these days! A superior felt. Enjoy. -

The Bowler or Derby Hat
Carter, that Stetson Nutria is quite a sight. Since it carries the Chestnut St address, does it have a date of manufacture on the inside of the sweatband? Any chance of a close-up of that liner logo? Thanks for showing that collection. Still curious what people wear with their... -
Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
I was watching that one. But when they say "Never Worn" and you can see the sweatband is all but shot and there are indentations in the crown... I run away. Probably a great hat, but I am more risk averse these days.
