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

    Thanks, that's actually a good idea. I was planning on leaving it in the sun, but it's raining all week. I also thought about leaving it in the garage overnight, but it's warming up this week... I hadn't thought about the freezer. :D

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

    Well, so my Whippet came on Friday, and I'm wearing it today. I snapped a couple of quick pics, but was so busy this weekend that I didn't really take anything great. I was excited and creased it without taking any of the crown open, but the auction pic had a good one so I wasn't too worried...

    Fedoras and the sun - An observation

    Well, they say if you have something with almost any type of mold or mildew on it, the sun will kill it. I think you have the right idea as I've done this with numerous things throughout the years. Most of the things that "grow" on clothing often need dark, moist environments, and direct...

    Yeah, I saw a commercial the other day but have no interest in finding out more... that was all the Honey Boo Boo Child I need for a lifetime...

    This generation of kids...

    Not to mention that the worst thing you can do to a child in this day and age is throw them in front of a camera, give them fame, and expect them to grow up properly. It's tough enough to raise kids in a fairly normal life...

    Why do you come here? Why do you love the Golden Era?

    I come here because of the people... but I love the Golden Era because of every reason that everyone else has given. :D

    Hats at Work - A Photo Thread

    As do I.... after 2 years of working here and wearing hats daily, I don't get any strange looks, but I still get the compliments. Especially when I've got a full suit going too, which is usually only once or twice a week... only our execs wear suits daily, but I've noticed that my department...

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    That coat seems to work out well. And there's nothing wrong with looking like a spy.... even if it is a MAD spy....

    Post New Hats Here!

    Update, I searched all through the Stetson Liner thread and couldn't find one that matched. Perhaps it's a Stetson division, such as Mallory, after the acquisition? I'm sure there's someone who would know better, but the beaver and eagle make me think Stetson has some influence... I could be...

    Post New Hats Here!

    That looks like the Stetson logo, but the center of the crest is different that the one in my hat from the 50's. Not sure about the model, though.

    +1 None of the scoutmasters in my son's pack have such great head-wear.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Watched the 1941 "Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde" with Spencer Tracy yesterday while doing work around the house. Classic... AMC seems to be starting their horror classics run, so I've set the DVR for a few... I didn't see any mention of The Wolf man or The Invisible Man, both featuring Claude Rains...

    Glamorous Men?

    Yeah, and that comes with men commenting on men... it just doesn't happen, most men don't really care about what other guys are glamorous. JMO, moving on...

    shouldn't use my fireplace? or get an insert?

    I agree on all counts here, you would loose most of your heat through the fireplace as it draws the heat up and out. But I also have some info that gives credence to the dangers as well. We bought our current house in January, and it was originally built in 1961. The fireplace was designed...
