Good morning all
is.php


just couldn't let this 'un pass me by for that price,http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSAA:US:11&Item=8274096266
even before I received a reply to my question about the brim width... I was afraid someone here would snatch that puppy up!
This appears to be a Churchill clone of an Open Road, right?
Does anyone know if Churchill is still in the hat game? And any speculation regarding possible age ?
So, any advice as to how to proceed to reshape this into my primary summertime lid?
I saw a good example of this that RBH nailed on the OPEN ROAD GUILD thread, so I guess I will start conservatively with H20 & see how that progresses, but any & all suggestions on how to proceed will be gratefully accepted.

Regards & best wishes to all for a happy Easter or a righteous Passover or a serene Souramana Yugardi or a peaceful Vaisakhi (don't want to leave anyone out...;))
