Dogman, that is a very cool box. I have never seen one like that. Maybe that is a special box they only used for clear beaver like the suitcase they used for Stetson 100's. Your hat looks like an early 1950's to me.
I also noticed the name "Texas Joe" and that the hat came from Fort Worth...
Joao, very nice looking hat. It has definitely been through a renovation. The "RENSH" marking on the back of the sweatband indicates a renovation by Shudde Brothers. They were well known for doing very good renovation work. It is hard to say exactly what the hat was before being renovated...
That is what I thought it might be for but wasn't sure. Are you going to use a vintage block or did you make one of those too? Everything in the photo looks fantastic. You are very talented!
Renault, great looking wartime 94. I love 94's and can't seem to pass one up when I see one. Most of mine are in 30-30 but last year I bought two nice 94's in 32 Win Special from an older gentleman here that was selling off his guns because his children and grandchildren did not want them. One...
The brim width on this hat is 2 1/2" and the crown height when open crown is just a tad under 5 1/2". The color is Burnt Oak which I would describe as a rusty brown color. The felt is extremely soft and can easily be creased by hand without the need for steam. I bought this hat last year and...
I had a few questions about brim and crown size in a PM about this hat and thought I would post my response here also.
The brim width is 2 1/2" and the crown height when open crown is just a tad under 5 1/2". The color is Carbon Grey which is a very dark grey. It could almost pass for black...
My favorite type of hat is an Open Road style hat with a cattleman's crease. I have one friend who likes to jokingly call me LBJ or Lyndon. I had never told that friend but I actually have one of LBJ's hats with his name on the sweatband and "LBJ Ranch" on the liner. These hats were made for LBJ...
Richard, where do you see Superfine on the website? My Squatter from HatsDirect was an Imperial felt and came open crown. It appears that the Squatters from EverythingAustralian come with a Pork Pie crease too. Is that correct?
For sale is a Moonstone Grey Akubra Bushman in a size 59. I purchased this hat new from David Morgan Hats. Unfortunately the hat is too small for me. It has never been creased and will come open crown with all the original packaging. I'm asking $125.00 shipped anywhere in the USA. Below is a...
