FINALLY A PLAYBOY TO CALL MY OWN!

This finally plugs one of a few serious omissions in my collection!!!


I am presuming it is a liner-less lightweight felt, what with the vents and all. The first one I recall with that feature. I'll have to stretch it up a size, no problem.

...now I am searching for a Flagship, A real Whippet (the one I have is 5o's, made by Stetson for Shudde Bros , tho'!)
A Nutria
A Vita-felt

...and then I will stop buying hats. ..Okay STETSON hats, then!
Really! I am totally cereal about this, you guys!

I'd love to see more of this one
looks to be pretty early since it is pre brim stitching and has vents... plus the wind trolley is not super common on Playboys
a victory indeed

Not mine ... just an item of interest. Not sure I could pull this off (but some of you could).

1965 Stetson 3X thin ribbon in red (although it looks a bit orange on my monitor).

Now that Valentine's Day is over you don't need it anymore? You could save it for Christmas.

Got this great little Borso from The UK this am, I'll need to put a good stretch on it in order to put it out to a size 6!

I have a hat on the stretcher right now (by a hatter whose name mustn't be uttered, but rhymes with Had Gatter').
And hell's bells we are in straw season now. Although I plan to wear fur felt all summer. And little else. if the Aussies can do it, we should!

Damn, with finds like that I may have to make a trip to Ohio!

Confused... did you receive the vintage Playboy? Are there photos?
