Penman Hats
You'd have to ask John. My guess is that it's quicker and easier for him to update that, than having to go through a webpage guy, but that's just speculation. I don't really see what the issue is, as you don't have to join Facebook, simply click on a link, no different than if the swatches... -

A custom hatter should be able to replicate a close proximity of that hat. -
Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame
Just off the phone with the man himself and now I'm really excited. You gents helped confirm my decision for a Playboy-esque hat in the lightweight black cherry. I told Art to work his magic with the ribbon. -

FOR SALE - Late 40's/Early 50's Knox Vagabond KING Leightweight felt SZ 7
If it's the same hat I saw, you did a good job cleaning it up, and that's a heck of a steal for a lucky lounger. I almost bid on that one!- jlee562

The shop I'm referring to is Hat Guys in Oakland on Broadway. Their cleaning guy comes by every week or two. I'm not sure he's so adept at handling vintage hats, because he glued back in the liner of my 50's Open Road....that ticked me off a bit so I haven't been back (not Hat Guy's fault per... -

My local hat shop can turn a cleaning around in a week....if you happen to drop off your hat on the day that their hat cleaning guy picks up. Two weeks is a very tight timeframe. It doesn't hurt to give a call to Cleanahat.com or Optimo to see if they can accommodate you, but seems like a... -

Searching for a HOMBURG, pearl gray or warm gray in LA
Well my friend, bacteria doesn't cause dandruff (its actually a fungus, and it's probably already on your head), and I don't think there's any particular "danger" as it is with vintage hats. If you're looking for a new hat, look for a Stetson St. Regis. -
Raiders of the lost Ark crown height query.
Yup, should be 4 1/2" in front, 4" in back. The 5 1/2 does indeed refer to the open crown measurements. -
