Nice! Wider brim, too. Where do you find these, ebay USA or elsewhere?
My first Whippet hope it fits and looks alright on me.

I am new to creasing Fedora's I am not sure how it will turn out,do you set the crease first to what one wants then steam it?or just crease it?Congrats! I never get tired of the way mine look. That one needs the top front creased down a bit, but I bet you'll shape it up and wear it well.

Ok, here goes
English hatmaker Battersby in velour dark grey. Postmarked box 1962.
Bought for £5! wow, a rare good deal
Very nice Gumbo. Have handled a few of this make before and they seem to have been a top brand.
For Beethoven's Birthday...
Great find! Looks like a nice Velour! Hopefully you can put up some better photos.
I just grabbed this very clean looking Mallory Ten Premier Pliafelt with a Buy it Now of $34.99. It's only a size 7, but so is my head! Having read several favorable allusions to Pliafelt, I'm excited to feel it.

I don't own one, and I've only handled one, but IMO, that Pliafelt is one of the greatest things in felt.
Last week I won this Resistol Fedora http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...dzVt8II%3D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK:MEWNX:IT . Well it came today. It had some dents in it that I soothed out and a center crease that I changed to a teardrop. I've owed many Resistols in my day but this is my first non Western one and my first Vintage Hat.
You can't really see the color in the pictures it is kinda of a mocha brown with a little red in it.
