Thanks Bowen. Resistol did seem to get the proportions and curves just right on this one.
Thanks Stefan. The felt on that one is firm, but nicely malleable.
Thanks Stefan. Nice swoop to the Long Rider.
It's fortunate that you have such a nice stable of straws in that case. We are finally...
There is a bit of the homburg feel in that brim shaping. I think it would suit you.
Thanks D-dog. It's the Long Rider model in Tanbark if you ever happen to look for one.
Thanks all,
Michael
A Stagecoach morning.

Off for the weekly grocery shop and then the city rummage sale starts at noon today.

It is different for a store logo for sure.
Thanks Red.
Nice bunch of hats, Red. I really like that bluish one.
Can't go wrong with an OR.
That is a beauty, Red. Love that color combo. I was just playing with a piece of ribbon very close to that same color and thinking it would be super. Now...
Beautiful morning for a Stetson Royal Deluxe Open Road

Have a great day, all,

It is a pretty cool stamp, though I can't make out exactly what it is.

And who could not want a hat from El Dorado.
Thanks Red. The Whippet held out until it was time to run bicycle errands. Then the new, to me, Palmoro came out again.

Off to the library in a bit.

Have a great day,

Thanks Red. It's a nice blue. And the portholes o the straw are actually big enough to provide a little ventilation. I think it is going to see a lot of wear for the rest of the summer since it is bicycle friendly. I couldn't get the photos to show the sort of dark honey color.
Thanks,
Michael
I picked up this Palmoro palm straw at the thrift today and promptly took it out on the bike ride.

It seems to be a high quality piece of work and I see they are available new for $39. I would say that is very...

Thanks Red. Here is an interesting hour long film that follows the passengers through all of the ports of call on a 100+ day around the world cruise on the Caronia.
I found a few newspaper ads that touted the full crown and 2" underwelt brim. They all dated to '58 and '59.
Thanks Max. That...
A nice cool morning again today. The new Resistol Caronia gets the call.

Named after the famous Cunard cruise liner. Seems likely to be from 1958 or '59 and had the original price of $10.95.

Thanks Red. The hunt was not particularly productive in the edibles category, but it was a lovely day in the woods. I found a few Chanterelles that I gave to a woman that doesn't get out hunting too often.
I've debated a bright pug, but also just a simple, but somewhat wider, black ribbon...
Off for a mushroom foray today. Hats Guatemaya palm straw will hopefully keep the mosquitoes off of my head

Hat a great Saturday,
Michael
Ha ha. I like this old Gordon too. And black and red.
Man, I love that color combo. Great looking hat.
The ribbon and felt on that hat are a perfect pairing. Always one of my favorites of Moon's. And now one of my favorites of yours.
Thanks,
Michael
And this Resistol with a 2" brim and a 2 3/16" ribbon
