    Well folks, when the only way someone can promote themselves is to pull others down, that tells you all you need to know about the value of their advice.

    I had a chat yesterday with the maker of Hugh's hat, Rosie Boylan. She told me she was going for a cross between a homburg and a cowboy hat. Great look - and you're right elvis, it would sell. Rosie tells me it won an award for best movie hat that year. (There's an award for best movie hat??).

    The Wrong Hat

    Good grief Brad. FIVE hat shops in the same proximity and two of those in the same street! And that's just ONE brand! Hats were obviously one of life's essentials in the 20's.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Many thanks Billy, Mr P, Mario and Sue. As for the name Mr P...well...time, and language, changes doesn't it. Interestingly, my Gay Blade doesn't have the model name anywhere on the hat. I do have the original receipt which notes the name, but the hat only designates it as 'Dobbs 15' on the...

    Which just goes to show, Mario ol chum, that's there's a story behind all the hats we own. I bet we could write a book of "Hat Tales - A hatophile's hatography"

    One of my favourite Borsalinos is a Punti 7 - and I'm a Punti 5-1/2. Like you, I got excited by the hat and received conflicting advice from the seller re the size. So, I took the chance. The confusion kept most of the bidders away and I got it cheap. Well...it turned out to be a true but...
