    "Uncontested - The Champ"

    Annixter, that is a fine looking Champ. I like the overwelt, and it certainly has an interesting crease - it looks good! I like Champ's slogan, "feel the felt." If that occurred in the past I guess you felt the felt...

    Earliest movies; lots of hats

    Pompidou, thanks for posting. Zombie, the SFO film was pretty cool too. Even the horses jaywalk! Contrast that with modern times. A few years ago I was rushing from Union Square to the airport and caught a cab on Market Street. As we were driving along I saw a pedestrian step off the curb and...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I'm sure you've said this before Bart, but what hat is that? Is it a VS? It's a very nice color, and the ribbon complements it quite well. I also like the restrained pinch - not too tight. Looking good!

    Okay, Artie. Not sure what's going on but before a bartender steps in let me say your comments are odd at best. Please stop.

    New Mileage out of an old Open Road

    I'm with the Deputy on this one. If it ain't broke, don't fix it! But it's your hat so have fun with it :)

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    None today, but if I did I'd be thinking about some really good latakia, maybe Penzance or Deacon's Downfall in a Castello billiard. Alas, no time for a smoke.

    Akubra Lawson

    Congrats on your purchase, AlterEgo. It will surely fit the purpose for which you intended. When mine arrived I also felt it would be too big forever, but true to Akubra form, it now fits like a glove. Enjoy in good health.

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

    I thought the same thing - the Bugs Bunny mobster. I thought that and the poor pics would scare people off. I'd be interested to see that one in person or in pics on the Lounge.

    I threw in a sub $40 bid on this Mallory hoping to see if I could land it using "light tackle" but alas, was beat out. Any Lounger taking this one home? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160405989303&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_720wt_1165

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    That's a great looking old hat. On your mug I don't think it has limited wearability at all. Nicely done! Edit: I thought I had attached a pic of the old Stetson you just posted Scott. Since I didn't, I was referring to that hat.

    I give up...help date this Stetson Fifteen?

    Great work Vic and Salty! I was going to suggest sending it to me for further research. It's a great looking hat. The felt looks luxurious and the box bow is very nice.
