    FS: 17 Optimo hats size 7 ½

    Sorry guys. I've not given this project the full attention because of personal things. I got really busy this weekend. I am going to get to work on the hat measurements tonight. I’ll also see what I can do about a more concrete price list. However, anyone may feel free to make offers me any...

    Hi Neil, the prices vary depending on the condition of the hat. A few have literally been worn only a couple of times. If a particular hat can use a cleaning, I take that into consideration on the price. Cheers

    Many of you have asked for dimensions on specific hats. I have not been able to get my hands on a measuring tape yet and have at it. Sorry for the delay. I will try to have the info on all the hats up by Friday. Cheers

    Fedoras are great. I like them, but they were a passing phase for me. I also have many patched aviator jackets and the fedoras clash. I get more mileage out of Irish caps & newsboy caps these days. These hats should be worn. Time to give them new homes. Cheers

    The pics with the hats on my head are up. You'll have to excuse the dirty mirror. Also, the spots (some red, some other colors) are on the mirror, not the hats. Cheers

    The only hat that has an unsnappable brim is one of the Superfino Monticristies. Soon I'm going to post pics of them on my head so you guys can get a better feel for them.

    Thanks for the interest guys. I couldn't really tell you the circumference of each hat just yet. What I will do is get a measuring tape and put proper dimensions of each hat on the page in the near future. One thing that I will say is that they are “modern” 7 ½’s and not the smaller “vintage”...

    Vintage music with a Latin flair.

    I can’t believe that I missed this thread. The place to start is with the Machito Orchestra. In Machito’s (Frank Grillo) band was a Cuban named Mario Bauza. Mario Bauza basically invented Latin Jazz. He had the idea of mixing Latin rhythms with jazz harmony. It’s a simplification, but...

The real story was about Hector fighting the obstacles of a non-supportive industry that took advantage of entertainers with his charisma and...

    Share your favourite Jazz

    His collaboration was actually with Eddie Palmieri. Both records (El Sonido Nuevo & Bamboleate) are superb. Tjader's greatest rhythm section (and band, come to think of it), had Mongo Santamaria on congas, Willie Bobo on timbales, Al Mckibbon on bass, and Vince Guaraldi on piano. The general...
