Well, sometimes you put it out there into the world that you're looking for a black Boss Raw Edge and then carouselvic swoops in like a Fedora Lounge hat angel to offer a very old Stetson in need of a sweatband. Unfortunately the quality designation of the felt (and whether this is a "true" Boss Raw Edge) is unknown, but this felt has lots of life left. Although I would still like to get an all-original example, it will be nice to have a wearer that I won't have to baby too much. It's on the way to VS for the refurb treatment.

Yah, 2019 is starting off with two Stetson refurbs. Although with both Bob and Art having pretty full work benches, it may be a while before I receive them.

Looks like a great bit of good fortune to me. Look forward to seeing it after Art works on it.

Indeed! Thanks again to Vic (and Garrett!) for passing on two great hats to breath new life into.

No need to get all exited or I'll never live up to the anticipation. Just a little joke between me and Max about my dislike for green hats.
That one has a pretty awesome liner. Looks like an oldie and a good one at that.

Ah, you've found it. Cool, isn't it?
