car colors...
Good data. Having worked in the automotive coating industry for several years we were aware of the trends in colors. White and black have historically been the tops sellers.

Newbie and New Akubra Owner (well, almost)
Hi AlterEgo, Thanks for the welcome and advice. I purchased my Banjo from NogginTops. The had a sale a week or so ago and the Banjo was marked down 20% for a couple days. The size 59 fit well out of the box, but I feared some shrinkage over time. They also supplied two felt shims but there... -
Akubra Campdraft

Newbie and New Akubra Owner (well, almost)

Collector vs. User Well I am not into collecting just for the sake. I like to use things I am interested in. The notable exception here being Chilmark pewter Civil War statues. Handguns, knives, "N" scale model trains, flashlights and (ok a bit weird) --- carry-on luggage/bags.- Gromulus

New Ladies and Gents Step Forward
Yet another newbie........ Sorry in advance for the long post. I assume this is the right place for initial introductions. I have been lurking here for a few months and have recently made the decision (after 52 years) to wear a hat for everyday purposes. And yes, I do still have a full head...- Gromulus
