    I'm with you on that one, DRB. That hat just beckons...and also congratulations, Mayser.

    I copied Jimmy The Lid's idea!...

    I'm on the West Coast. What are you doing up so late? Aren't you going to chastise him just a little for lifting your idea? Nah, I guess you're too classy for that and it's all shared among the hat brethren!:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

    What is this hat?

    Yeah, I think my old man captured one of the wily tribble hats back in the 60's as well and I'm almost certain it was of the $2 variety.

    Hey, and by the way you are getting quite a nice collection of lids there, my friend! Minus that Whippet incident at the restaurant...:mad::mad:

    What kind of hat might look good on my noggin?

    +3 on the Campdraft. Your granddad's hat has very little taper (very straight sides as opposed to getting narrower towards the crown) and that matches the Campdraft very well. I believe you can buy it "open crowned" as well and shape it yourself. It would be a good addition to your hat...

    Detroit?:D Sorry, probably not the answer you were looking for. Okay, he's mad because you copied his idea so he's not weighing in on your thread! Hey, nice shelves Aureliano!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Nail on the head, RBH! We all know Bolt likes the stingies, but this one looks great!

    My favorite trick for snugging a slightly oversize hat

    Yeah, I like the sound of this idea, and I might have a chance to use it on a 7 3/8 I'm expecting in the next week - I'll have to wait and see how it fits on my 7 1/4 head.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Bart, first things first, glad the bird turned out well, and I like the fedora with the casual athletic shirt. A hat and everyday wear sometimes does the job...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Just my size and incredibly tempting! I hope a member scored that one and we'll get to see it. It didn't appear to have the really fancy box included, but I'm a wearer not a collector.

    Greyfox, I hope you had a happy Thanksgiving! Apparently you did with that great looking Mallory. Nice one.

    Buler? Buler? Well, there you have it. It was a good idea. Executed a bit late.:eusa_doh:

    The Reference Room

    I was reading a post by Zetwal in which he mentions a book: I thought it might be beneficial to have a thread which lists books and/or other references on the topic of hats. Links to hat resources would probaby work here as well, e.g. rlk had a link for information on OPS in a thread...

    Agreed, that is a great looking Dobbs. And Bolt, you're sporting a fine hat yourself!

    Fedora hats are rarely sexy - or so does she think...

    Welcome, rue! I imagine you would get a ton of suggestions for a fedora for your husband if you started a thread. Give us a few details like what in general you're looking for, price range, etc. The boys here will be most helpful.

    Looking for a particular Fedora

    Blackmantis, I second (or third or fourth or whatever) keeping an eye peeled on Ebay. Here's a nice coffee brown lid made by Champ I picked up quite inexpensively. You could maybe start with an Akubra Stylemaster to have a hat now while you keep looking on Ebay.

    The Bowler or Derby Hat

    Joshbru, I was going to ask how you knew the date of the hat so precisely - that ticket was a neat find! Can you enlighten me on what patent you were searching for and where you were searching? Nice hat!

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    First there was the setup, and then Mr. Blaine knocks it down!

    Do you have ONE favorite?

    Great pic, Michaelshane! For me it's: This seems to be my go to, everyday lid. It's a Champ Diplomat. Nothing to go gaga over, but I really like it.
