    Full Hat Collection Photographs Thread

    I gotta say that all the latest images are awesome! And rabbit, not sure you're my size, but if you are and ever want to get rid of that charcoal Knox Twenty, let me know. :D

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

    I just mean that at times there isn't much in the way of competition for size 7, but I really don't find the styles that I want in my size very often either. I also really wasn't expecting to win this one because my top bid was only $41, and I know they've been going for at least 3 times that...

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

    Thanks... it's always tough to find nice hats in my size, but when they're available, they're fairly available. :D

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

    Ok, not exactly sure how, but I just won this Stetson Whippet for $41... hope it looks as good in person as it does in the auction. Its open crown still, with no signs of previous crease, so I' guessing it was reblocked, unless somehow it was never worn. Hope the links works...

    Just had 2 dry martinis, made with recipe above. Best.Martinis.Ever.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Not to mention that with a good dry Martini, you're not supposed to taste the Vermouth anyway. The best dry martini is made as such: Shake 2 1/4 oz of chilled Gin with large ice; pour 1/2 oz of Dry Vermouth into the glass, then swirl, and immediately pour out; then strain the Gin into the...

    Aloofness in Re-enactment.

    That's the real value in this group; everyone had to start somewhere, and everyone gets something different out of the community. I personally don't have any piece of clothing dating further back than 1970, and my oldest hat is from the 50's, but I'm finding my own style from what I've learned...

    "Lincoln" 2012

    I'm looking forward to this as well, partly because I used to live in Gettysburg and had a bit of the Civil War in our daily lives, but also because not only is DDL a great actor, but Joseph Gordon-Levitt is great, too.

    Trench Coat - the 'Ultimate' Thread!

    No problem, that's the same thing I figured, too. Can't beat spending less than $30 on a great coat! :D

    What year was this photo taken?

    The Packard looks to be from 1939, as the 1938 and older models have the side vents in shorter sections, so I'd agree at least 1939 if the car were new. There does seem to be a little wear at the base of the top and along the bottom of the door, so it's more likely that it could be a few years...

    Post New Hats Here!

    If you're asking about the Champ, the larger images appear to show a welted edge; either an overwelt or Cavanaugh style, but I'll need to see it in person to confirm that.

    Post New Hats Here!

    I posted this in the Champ thread but wasn't sure if anyone was looking recently. I just picked this Champ up for $30 on etsy (looked like a decent deal, perhaps only needs some good brushing and maybe a reblock), should arrive next week. I'm not sure when it's from, and I don't know much about...

    HOW about Fly Fishing? Let's see your outfits . . .

    I fly fish quite a bit, and even tie my own. I have mostly modern gear and apparel, though.

    Premature burial that causes you the most pain....

    I've been fairly happy with Doctor Who until the recent season. It's almost starting to feel forced... that said, I'm excitedly awaiting the introduction of the new companion hoping that it will re-invigorate the series. David Tennant was the best of the three doctors since the 2005 relaunch...

    "Uncontested - The Champ"

    A few extra notes on this one: the seller said that the open crown height was about 5 1/2", brim about 2 1/2", and ribbon about 1 3/4".

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Very cool look there! With both yours and bowlerman's adjusted homburgs, I'm been tempted to get one and try it too!

    "Uncontested - The Champ"

    So I've got a question for those Champ guys out there. I just picked this one up for $30 on etsy (looked like a decent deal, perhaps only needs some good brushing and maybe a reblock), should arrive next week. I'm not sure when it's from, and I'm not sure what the Kasmir finish is, but it...
