Hello, people. Need the list of all Stetson Fedoras with pics, please.

I mean of all time, not only the modern.

Publisher??

Good luck with that!

Even if you cataloged every hat on the forum, it would only be a fraction of the models out there. Most hats never had a model name anywhere on the hat so it is impossible to positively identify them.

That's catchy, Bowen. I bet somebody like Matraca Berg could make a song out of it, ..."One is one too many, one more is never enough..." Yep, mention tequila in there somewhere and it's sure to be a hit! Intended in the spirit of good fun, not criticism.

Take care, friend!

Hey Woodtroll...anybody from the Mtns. of SW Virginia is ok in my book and should well understand that little quip. Lol
I regret retiring from that pleasure before i got any real WV Shine darn it!
Agreed....if there ain’t a song or two out there about that, there sure should be.

Is that a paraphrase of the cynical remark of Joseph Stalin?
"A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic."

It’s a saying from the rooms of AA.

Oh, is that all. I’m working on the grand unifying theory and solving perpetual motion, but as soon as I’m done I’ll get right on it.

How can I stop the front brim of my Biltmore straw from curling? Esther explained to me that there are many and varied types of straw, not knowing which one my Biltmore is made from I went onto the Biltmore website. Here's another question: Has Biltmore always been Biltmore Bernard, or has there been a buyout in the past?

Back to my Biltmore's curly brim. Leaving a heavy flat weight over the curl has a limited result but not for long, And because the curl is on the brim it's so difficult to remove. Is there any sort of solution that would help, suggestions please.
There are no markings in the hat to suggest which straw has been used. It just gives the hat size, the Biltmore crest and made in the USA.

Have you tried a bit of steam and an iron?
I would do it on a firm surface with a clean cloth, maybe flannel or a muslin, between the hat and iron, and the hat crown down. Don't get too tight to the crown or you'll change the flange completely (you are changing it some, but it clearly already changed from how it began). Then steam it at the brim break, set it on a table and splay your fingers, pushing down at the break while it cools, about 1/4 of the brim at a time. This should restore a brim up flange, eliminate those waves, and give you a good point to fine tune it with a little bit of steam and spinning it back and forth on the edge of a table.

I exited and deleted Tapatalk. So you're just throwing good kin after bad.

Thanks Hat, my missus said that would have a go at doing that and if it doesn't work, or the hat is damaged, she will arrange for Santa to bring me a new one. Result!
