The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Got this one on ebay. I haven't seen the "Made in Italy" below the Borsalino stamp before in any pics (and I did look!). No idea what the age of it would be, but if I read the listing of the tag descriptions in "Dating a Borsalino", the serrated one on this would be late 50s-early 60? Anyone... -
George I. Eakle
Dobbs fedora. Probably with more speculation than is necessary. This looks to be, based on the liner crest, the fact that it has the block depth listed on the label (4??? Short! That's not what I'm used to seeing in the pics of this label!!!!), and the plastic tip protector, from the early... -

Campbell Soup for the Soul
Got this Campbell fedora for xmas. Finally got to wear it out today after a bit of clean-up. This was an ebay hat that the seller said that their grandfather got in the 40s. Checking the little info I could find about James T Owens (Jay-Te-O to you and me!), he was involved in stuff like... -
The Resistol Roundup
It is a pretty stingy one. 2inch. Luckily for me, I'm a little guy. So, I can pull off the 1 7/8 - 2in brim and it doesn't look TOO tiny. I have one 1.5in hat, and it's too much even for my build. But, yeah, as long as I can come up with a way/place to store them, I think it behooves me to... -

Stetson block profile numbers
This derby has the 1900 Exposition Medal logo, which was replaced by the 1915 one. Judging by the other posts I'd seen in both the derby thread, and the Exposition Medals thread, things point to it being 1915 or earlier. I'd actually stated "I think it is pre-20s" in my original post about... -

The Resistol Roundup
I haven't seen many of these posted, so I figured I'd do so. Just got this 707, in black, off of the ebays. It is in pretty sweet condition, and is actually a loose-fitting 7 1/8. Self conforming? Does that mean that it was grow or lose headband depending on the being wearing it? Is this... -
The School of Hard Knox
While probably not terribly exciting to everyone here, this is the Tom'N'Jerry I got a bit ago. I figured I'd post it because I always wanted to be one of the Cool Kids™ in school. With this, at least I can pretend to be one of those in the School of Hard Knox, right? :p Not much... -
The Bowler or Derby Hat
This one I got while in Lowell, MA at an antique store a few years ago. From what I have seen, based on the Stetson logo, it could be late 50s or so? It is MUCH softer than the one above. It also looks a good bit different than the one above (brim is smaller, mostly), but still is pretty... -

The Bowler or Derby Hat
Just got this Stetson derby in the mail from ebay. The person who had sent it jammed it into a box that was too small for it, but I was able to work the dents out a bit. Will likely try again to get them a bit more 'smoothed out'. But, it is in great condition otherwise. A good brushing... -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Just got my first Borsalino off of the ebays. I THINK I got a good price, as I haven't actually seen a San Remo for sale there before (which, truth be told, doesn't mean much since the vintage hat addiction only kicked in a few weeks ago now)... But, for $60 shipped, it came in very nice... -
The Dobbs Diner...
The comment (above) about suspecting that it would not be my last hat was already relegated to shedding light on the past. Yep... Too late, even at that time! :p I have four Dobbs hats now (and a few other brands), the others being a green tweed job that I got while in the US Northeast, and... -
The Dobbs Diner...
Ah... So, there may be a flaw in my understanding... There's a pic in the original that seemed, to me, to be the OPS interior price tag (example attached here from The Hatted Professor site that led me to believe it was one, and the original from above). I thought it was just that the... -
The Dobbs Diner...
I got this hat a few weeks ago, and it is the one that made me want to create an account here and post. The reason is because, even on The Hatted Professor site (as well as here!) I haven't yet found one quite like this listed anywhere. I figured that it could come in handy for someone else... -
