Three weeks after a trip to Optimo - a new liner, sweat band and ribbon, cleaned, re-blocked and slightly re-sized:

Another W.B Davis Fifth Avenue

I just received a new hat in the mail today...it, too, has the Fifth Avenue marking on the sweatband and, it too, is also from W. B. Davis company in Cleveland. Thought that was kind of a coincidence when I was searching for Knox and Fifth Avenue. This hat, though, is a derby. While I've got a few older derbies in the current collection, this is the first one I have managed to find in a 7 3/8 Long Oval...and the fit is splendid :) I'll have to post some pics. Kind of interesting how various old hat shop names become familiar after awhile...

Norton, very nice hat. Very nice re-work...:eusa_clap

Thanks. I wore it to work almost every day during the winter and have it carefully packed away for next year.
