    Bee Hat Company (now with images)

    Yeah, 7-3/8 here too. Funny I never see that size listed on his vintage hats page... hmmm... lol

    Paddy's return from 'The Green Fields of France'

    I will have to go there for a visit. I'll need to make sure to have a handkerchief in every pocket, though.

    Those are some nice lids!

    Royal Stetson Deluxe... (Now with photos)

    That is a cool lid, I was watching it and hoping a Lounger would get it. Actually, my very first Homburg is very similar to this one, a grey Royal DeLuxe with the little wind string. Mine wasn't a St. Regis, though, I guess that's a cut above a regular Royal DeLuxe. :)

    The NSU Prinz on the left is German, that company was absorbed by Audi. On the right is the very British Morris Minor. Morris also made a little woody wagon version, which I'd love to have. Both cars, if memory serves, had four bangers (the NSU was rear-engined) and under 1,000 cc (under 61...

    a question of color

    The browns and tans seem to work for me, too. I tend to favor the "earth tones" in my day-to-day clothes, and I have a wonderful brown pinstripe suit from Indy Magnoli.

    New Grey Akubra Federation

    Mine took five days, including a Saturday and Sunday, so really it took about 3 business days. Fast as lightning!

    Vintage Phones

    I love the 302. Pre-WWII, heavy as heck. The one on my desk is from 1938, and it works great. My cordless phone from 1999 is about ready for the scrapheap.

    That might work. I think a lot of people buy SUVs for the roominess, particularly the headroom. Higher rooflines on passenger cars might turn the trend around. I have to admit I've been intrigued by the little Scion xB, it has loads of head (and hat!) room for a small car. I wonder what...

    Watch the end credits of a "Twilight Zone" episode. Rod wore Kuppenheimer's, too!

    Reminds me of my parents' stable back in the mid 1960s. This pic is from 1966: NSU Prinz and Morris Minor 1000.

    Gravitas

    With some of us it's just plain ol' gravity. lol

    James Stewart today? Tom Hanks!

    Jimmy Stewart's grave is practically across the street from where I work. I should go up and pay my respects.

    WWII and the US/UK

    Well, the U.S. mainland wasn't bombed or blockaded, that was a big difference. And the defence buildup meant a lot of new well-paying jobs.

    Know of any good Chicagoland hatters?

    It wouldn't even have to be in Illinois, really. Think about it: Chicago dogs, employees dressed in pinstripes and fedoras carrying violin cases, a network of "El" trains instead of a monorail... ;)

    Stetson Vogue bowler...1957 (now with new pics)

    Could it have been exported to England? Bowlers remained in fashion there long after they faded away in the USA.

    Adam Ant

    I had an Atom Ant lunchbox when I was a kid in the 1960s. ;)
