    Giant Pith Helmet Thread of Doom

    I am in Houston. A pith helmet is great for our hot, humid weather. Cattus made that pugaree, and it is a fine one.

    Giant Pith Helmet Thread of Doom

    Where did this one come from? Thanks.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Nice, Joao. That Canadian crease (or maybe it is the similar PRCA (Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association) crease) was the hot ticket in the late '70s and early '80s. The hatband is a giveaway as to its date, too.

    What are the Oldest Objects you Own?

    I have a couple of hydrogen atoms that were formed just a few seconds after the big bang. In man-made objects, we have some paintings from the late 19th century.

    Thanks, rjb1. I should get a letter from S&W for that one.

    And one that is a little outside the range, but a Smith pre-model 27. I haven't checked the age of serial number, but this one is, I think, from the middle to late '50s.

    And you might not know it, but this is also period appropriate. It is a Weatherby from '49 or '50. This is from when Weatherby used Mauser actions, and the serial number puts it back to those years.

    Show us your Guns!

    Forum appropriate - a FN Model 1910. The grips are ivory and appear to be handmade. They aren't quite the same on both sides, but lovely nonetheless. I can't say how old this one is - but it is old. I'd guess the '20s to '40s as it came from an ancestor of my father-in-law and he was born in...

    Crashed in the Pacific. No need to thank me.

    The Cap Faction

    Perhaps the problem is that no one knows what the rule is. It seems not to require actually selling caps. But how close would one have to be to selling caps to be promoting a business? And how would anyone know - the potential seller would seem to be the only one in a good position to know...

    This is a couple of years ago, but there has been no real change.

    Giant Pith Helmet Thread of Doom

    I had a real pith helmet and they are excellent hats for hot weather. They shade you, allow circulation, and you can wet them and get some evaporative cooling. I got a decent one from Village Hat Shop. I should get a new one, as my old one wore out.

    Great hat and cool necklace, Alan. Happy birthday. ManofKent - I don't always love black hats, but it is great with that burgundy jacket.
