Keep it up, the blog is very entertaining, let's hope that Bettina ends up as famous as Binks is.

Yep, you are right, ValEag. I debated using this pic, and probably should have. It shows the date better:ValEag said:Thanks for the review Blackthorn. Looks like they did a great job on your Dobbs, and the store looks like an interesting place to visit.
From this article, it looks like it all started in 1918:

Looks like that date is visible to the left of the door in your first pic.
Very nice pics too!

Do you have any before or after pics to show the finished product?
Thanks.
Yes, they re-sewed the original sweatband back on. And they did indeed clean and reblock it and reused the original ribbon. As to it being a reeded sweatband, I don't know the difference, sorry.tonyb said:I was wondering the same thing.
I take it they reused the original sweatband? Is it also safe to assume they cleaned and blocked it and reused the original ribbon?
Feraud, I didn't take any "before pics." I wish I had thought of that. I can post some pics of the sweatband later tonight, if that will help on the reeded vs unreeded subject. Let me know if you want me to do that.Feraud said:A question.. does the Dobbs have an un-reeded sweatband?
