    Why the Indiana Jones hat?

    My 2 cents- I think you hit it hard when you said "wanna be adventurers..." we all want to be someone we're not, in some little way, and as RBH simply put it-"Indy Jones is just cool!"- it's the slam-bang, thrill a minute macho hero wiseacre who just so happens to wear a very carefully...

    Bogart Hat on E-bay...maybe

    I'd simply check the auction houses' history; to be found to be dealing with fraudulent material is the death knell for most houses, and to state that all of this "hysterical collection" (did I say that??) is true to the best of their knowledge-all items sold as is, seller not responsible, etc...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Brand X: What camera did you use to take the shots of your hats, and can you remember the lens, settings, etc.? the shot of the trio on the dresser is very good-nice&sharp, good detail, and very smooth transition to OOF. All of your shots are good examples of how to shoot a hat ( I use a .12...

    My New Homemade Hat Torture Device- Stretcher

    Thanks JT- our difference is that I don't soak the hat, merely steam the daylights out of it, getting it moist & warm, then trying to do something that requires 3 hands. And a wet hat. I'm learning, but the curve is sometimes too steep for this cement-head...:eusa_doh:

    My New Homemade Hat Torture Device- Stretcher

    :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap terrific work! have you thought about making a mold of the two halves, so that you might replicate the blocks in another material? and-how did you compensate for the taper at the very top of the crown? I've tried all kinds of things with my stretcher-an...

    What's Up With This Hat?

    I'm sure the gentleman is very happy indeed. Wish I'd found it on the 'bay. Schiaparelli is an OK name. For icons of 20thC. design. Oh well...[huh]

    oh, to see that sweet little tag sticking out of the sweatband: LO they've become two of my favorite letters...I've gone to the extent of getting my hair cut so that I've got some extra on the sides to help compensate for the gaps in da hats, although they do make some good places to hide...

    try one of the newsboy type caps-in leather-and wear it backwards. you have to get one that's pretty thin in front, so it looks ok from behind. tried it myself, works ok, looks good with black leather. I usually wear a darker color Open-Road type fedora with a cafe-type jacket,or-a black...
