Stetson's "Gay Prince" competitor. A surprise: Its medium brown[huh] and the felt is lightweight,very thin, soft and floppy. So light it is barely able to hold the crown up. Stitching is brown too, not what appeared Burgundy on ebay photos. SPSI right up there with a Borsalino Alessandria. Great condition and fit.[/QUOTE]
Surely a rose by another name doth smell as gay.
... I mean 'look as sweet'. :eusa_doh:
Nice lid.

Thanks Jimmy! It does have the $15.00 price tag too. I have to say the "Tijuana" does sound a bit less jolly .jimmy the lid said:The "Tijuana" (1950)...

Perfect for a sunny Kansas spring day.

I'm not sure you need to give that one away, ET. It looks good on you.Ephraim Tutt said:I bought this Dobbs 'Randall' for my son - and as always happens, I kinda like it. I'd guess it's not too old - probably 80's.
Mikey P said:My "new" Knox. I think I look better in pinch fronts, but this is a very comfortable hat, and was the right price. Wish I knew what year it was from.

I bought this Stratoliner from HatDoc when I met him at the Monteagle, TN Fedora Lounge event recently. Been too preoccupied with other stuff lately to post pix. Here's one, though. It's in perfect condition and after wetting and wearing, it's now a custom fit.
Thanks, HD!
