I'm down for two more , sometime (no idea where on the list) , but I've been trying to figure out what color Hat my Grandfather had WAY Back when I was little . It must have been Natural , or like Sahara . I think Alan has a Hat a very similar color , it was sort of a dark Khaki shade , but not what AU calls Khaki (Taupe Fawn) like the Crampdraft , lighter and no green , more tan . Plus I'm kind of thinking instead of Dark Brown , going with Charcoal . Just thinking , never know . ... but my mind may change a Few Times by then . ... like a YoYo ...

You should get Michael to make you a Western. Just sayin' ;)

Harv , you know I thought about Springing that One on him and seeing what he said . I thought about the Hat Fonda wore in My Darling Clementine , or that Harry Carey Sr San An looking Hat , but I'm leaning The Wyatt Earp in Fonda's Movie , maybe not the Oreana Crease , but ... . I am thinking about it . Love that Horse Shoe BTW !

Thanks buddy.
Fonda's hat in Clementine in super cool. I'd say throw him the gauntlet. I bet he'd have a blast doing something out of his wheel house. Again, just sayin'. :)

After hearing you cats jawing about Fonda's hat in Clementine.....I checked it out....Actually watched the flick tonight because of this thread...

Killer film, with a ton of great hats...a real thin ribbon hat fest! One of Doc Holliday's hats that Vic is sportin could hold a couple liters of water in that deep telescope bash....lol!

I dug the way all the hat bashes wear so off the cuff and uneven....That had to be intentional....It's the way I like them and I guess folks in that day did as well...

By all means....I bet Gannon would be the man to rock that Wyatt Earp Sky-Piece.....I dug the bash aswell...

Nice M.C. Gannon lids there, pardner.

Billy has been sporting something an Open Road-type hat recently.

View attachment 52378

Probably about a size 8 1/2; he wears it over his African Bamileke ashetu cap, which goes over a bandana.

Gracias Amigo ! Si ! I've spotted him in those , and Man ! I don't know how he stands those ashetu caps under it ! Its gotta make the Hat size much Bigger , too , but he can still Heat Up that Guitar !
