Wyrd

That's a nice old hat. Just do a bit of shaping, there are recommendations in this forum for how to do that without staining the hat. Looks good!

I like that one, Wyrd. I have a Dunn & Co. flat cap in my collection. They're pretty good hats from what I can tell.

"Bee Cool" Genuine Pango Straw

I'm relieved its not Imitation Pango . Ventilation holes. Not sure if this is a grass fiber or paper product.

A.M.Fraser Glasgow Bowler

Heavy duty, almost double the weight of yesterday's Stetson Special. Just over 5-1/2" height.

A New Adam In the House

A very nice medium gray Adam with some interesting stitching around the brim and a different treatment to the grosgrain band. The dark spot is water and the light spots are the sun coming through the lemon tree. A dappled, almost impressionistic, never mind.

 

[mayserwegener]

redhawks2, Really like the ribbon and binding work on your Adam! Adam made fun hats. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

My "New Dobbs"

I just fished this out of the 'bay....

Here is the description the seller listed:

This is a vintage Dobbs Fifth Avenue New York men's fur felt fedora, size 7-1/8 with the original box. I believe it is circa 1950's. The inside of the hat reads Dobbs Fifth Avenue New York, Dobbs Fifteen with the Stagecoach emblem, Ware Pratt Co. Quality Corner Worcester, Mass also Guild Edge in a crest, and has the letters ENA. I inherited this along with items from my Great Uncle's estate. This hat does have some age wear, not noticeable when worn. It has some very small moth nibbles, although one nice feature is the box and the hat does not have a bad smell, there is a very small hole in the lining, also does have some age discoloration in the lining. The box is intact, both lid and bottom, but does have age wear mostly along the cardboard edges. The hat is light taupe in color, with an approximate 2-1/2" brim and a crown height of 5".

So... Any thoughts?
