Hey Rusty - you know I'm in!

(BTW, I'm lovin' some of those fine weave numbers: the Optimo (yes, leave it as is) and Douglas' fedora. Wonderful, guys!)

Mine's in rougher shape than most but I love the fraying, the faded ribbon, the 'bentupedness' and the character it posesses.

And... just what are you planning for it??? I hope you leave it as it is .... but... I know how that is also...
I am sure it would make a sweet c-crown.

I thought it was close to 3. I am just now getting to where a 3 inch brim is kinda growing on me.

My entry

Here's my entry into the Club Supernatural. Got it from eBay, but unfortunately, it didn't fit. So I sent it to Graham at Optimo and just got it back.

Because it doesn't fit, I am offering it up on OFAS. Don't know if I can "legally" link to the auction, so I won't. But I posted it tonight, if anyone is interested.

Here's the "before" photo:

I bought it as part of a Lot of 8 hats. It had a "plantation" type crown. I had Graham re-block it as an Optimo.

Here's the "after" photos:

For more photos, you can look up the auction on OFAS.

If it sells, I'll have to resign my membership in the Club, but I'll be on the lookout for another Supernatural. Awesome hats !!!

Cheers,

Randy

Awesome looking, Randy.

If you sell it on OFAS and still wanna be in the club, I've got supernatural milan in a rosewood tan with a pork pie block. Size 7 1/8.[huh]

 

[RBH]

I knew this would be a great thread!!!!

Super job,,,,,,it's Gorgeous. What size is it now?

It's still a 7.

 

[HatDoc]

Wow......that's stunning. If I looked good in a pork-pie, I'd make you an offer on that beauty.

Bolt......too bad it's not your size.
