    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    This Dobbs is an archetypal late '20s-'30s hat. Tall, straight crown that is approximately 5-1/4" as creased, 6" open, with a 1-3/4" ribbon. The brim is 2-1/4". Additional photos in the Dobbs Diner.

    The Dobbs Diner...

    Lovely old Dobbs, Robert. Navy Blue is such a beautiful ribbon color, and I am perplexed by their scarcity on vintage hats.

    Appreciate the kind words, Alan. The dome was really much too dark for good photos during our visit, but I will endeavor to take some pictures of the Brashear refractor and post them. It is a real treasure. I applaud your excellent selection today for heading to the polls. Campus visits...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Just a few blocks away from the Northrup King Building sits one of Minneapolis' oldest buildings, the 1887 Northwestern Casket Co. building, now known as the Casket Arts Building, and home to a colony of artists and their studios. The somber and a bit eerie, ivy-clad exterior belies the...

    Wonderful photos, BR! A bit anachronistic to see the tradition of the hunt alive and well in the desert. You are looking most dapper!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks, Manfred. Your eyes do not deceive you, the felt on this lid is the softest amongst all of my hats. So soft, in fact, that it behaves like a very high-weave-count Montecristi. The harsh lighting for the photos also exaggerates the natural, relaxed lines of the hat, but it will require...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks, Alan. The felt is as supple, thin and light as a fine Montecristi. The wide, 2-7/8" brim would be hard to tame without the spiral stitching, so I believe it serves a functional and not purely decorative purpose. Splendid portraits of you and Lily today!
