Art does great work.

To be honest, 1911 Man, I think that hat is a little too tall for your face - maybe 1/4" to 1/2". -M

 

[Boxerken]

Matt thats a really nice color on that Strat. Very nice!

Art Fawcett Stratoliner

I was reminded that I haven't added the pictures of my Art Stratoliner clone. I have had it for a little over a month now. It is amazing even though my mediocre photography doesn't show it.

No way! That's the crown height I have picked for myself and my face is similar in size.

Both of those stratoliner clones from Art are dead on gorgeous. What color is the ribbon and binding on the dark moss one?

Beautiful hats, gentlemen. I may have to ask Art to make me one of those next.

I already gave it its own thread, but since this is the "Hall of Fame", here are some pictures of my new Art Fawcett beauty.

Blade Runner,
I didn't comment on the other thread, but that's a gorgeous hat. I could see those colors going with all of my suits.

Not sure of the color on the ribbon and binding. They are the same color, and almost match the felt.

Art does great work.

Thanks for the pics. As I sit and look out at 100 degree heat index weather, I long so for the fall, my favorite time of year. Wearing light coats and walking fields with dogs bird hunting, shooting clays w/o drowning in sweat, and most of all wearing my fur felt hats everyday.

You are makin it very hard to leave Tennessee, Do I have to go back to Florida?

IC...it's killing me also...I never thought I'd end up back in Fla...I miss the Fall and Winter...8 months of heat is killing me....

 

[Mr_Misanthropy]

Yeah, both of those Stratoliner clones look fantastic.

For all the nonsense I post, I've realized that I never posted by hats from Art here. I've got to get better photos of the felt, but they'll do for now.

Art's response to a vague request for:
sage felt
a high crown, around 6"
a wide brim, around 3"
bound brim
Weegee ribbon treatment

I love the result.

I have got the greenlight for a second work of Art from the warden lol lol and I can't get this lid out of my mind. I think it would look great in Silverbelly with silver/grey ribbons.

That makes me proud Handlebar Bart, as your one was the inspiration for that order....I immediately sent a mail to Art after seeing yours in midnight blue on page 21. But compliments of course go to Art.

Anyway, here are a few other shots....2" brim it is handlebarBart...not an eighth bigger!

Take care with your health Art, and don`t let us pressure you in your work! Best of health to you Sir!

Get yourself back in perfect form before accepting any orders.

 

[handlebar bart]

Thanks for the pictures Daizawaguy:eusa_clap The new ones looks every bit as good as the original picture. Fantastic. I sure need a fedora with a shorter brim and the styling and dimensions of yours is perfect

Art does great work.

Wow! Very Cool Hat!

 

[Mr. Rover]

Check out Esquire Sept. 2008 pg. 133- a nice picture of one of Art's hats.

 

[Lefty]

Does this mean that you're under it?

I'm not a regular Esquire reader, but I remember voting for you for best dressed.

 

[Mr. Rover]

Ok- I'll spoil the surprise a little bit.

Here's a scan of the picture

Thanks again, Art! Hope you get well soon.
