Any new hats to post from the 2/28 promo?

I bought this hat quite a while back but never got around to posting it.

I did, it's a vintage stratoliner pin!

Very nice, MM!

Since you put that on a wide ribbon, it is a vintage DC3 pin.....

Just noticed this one on the Falcon Park facebook page.

Nice reminds me of the air force wings.

Just placed an order for my 2nd FP hat! It will be a replica of Depp's hat from "Public Enemies".

I've been meaning to share some pics, but haven't been around for a while (work blocked forums and that was where I spent most of my FL time). In March, I received two hats from Parker, one for my father's 60th birthday gift, and one for myself. Here's mine: the Falcon model, based on Bogie's hat in several movies. It's beaver in Steel Grey (which has become my favorite colored hat, very little blue in person, it's almost a light charcoal grey), with a 2 3/8" underwelt brim and a 1 5/8" ribbon:

It was a late night, and yup that's just a T-shirt. I've been meaning to catch a pic before work some morning but it never works out that way:

Oh, and I also have two restorations with him right now. The first is my brown Fed IV which needs a reblock and new bow, and the second is a silverbelly Lee that's likely from the 40's that I'm having cleaned, new bow, and some brim work done (the later will hopefully have a great William Powell look when it's done).

He does some excellent work; I know I'll be ordering from him again, too!

Ooooh, that is a sweet hat! The proportions are perfect.

 

[ManofKent]

Lovely hat - looks great

 

[Rogera]

+1! I really like that ribbon work

 

[Geldoc]

Really nice proportions. Parker did a great job on this.

 

[bowlerman]

Very nice!

Awesome, m0nk!! The underwent brim is a treat. I just re-flanged my FPH to show the welt a little more. Glad they arrived in good order. I'm sure you were in awe when you opened the box. :thumb:

Nice work, Parker!
