Thanks, Alan, and thanks everyone! This was quite a find at a little place off the I-29 in Canton, SD, where they don't sit around all day monitoring ebay prices...

 

[alanfgag]

Jackpot, my friend. Congratulations!

Great. Hard to find them when they're not advertised. All mine were stumbled upon as well...except my custom - stumbled a bit when I got the bill.

 

[bowlerman]

lol actually, I just found this clip which shows the outside of the shop itself (@ 46-56 seconds). Yesterday, it was either the hat or lunch, and I can get lunch any day. Monte, you may enjoy this too! Oh, provincial news... Enjoy!

(by the way, that's about all there is in that town.) A street, a courthouse, a few antique shops, and a Xmas tree farm from which I usually chop and purchase our tree each year.)

My haul of the day-- made out pretty well this morning:

Champ Kasmir "Black Hawk" but I think it's an especially charred very dark grey. full crown, 2 1/8" high flanged brim.

I REALLY like that Champ. The brim is just right for the color and crown. Sort of a Sinatra-esque hat. If it's a 7, let me know if you ever want to sell it!

Great looking Whippet, Dave. I'd like to see that one on ya!

 

[bowlerman]

+1! That is a beautiful color, David.

 

[Landman]

Jeff, that Stetson is beautiful! The liner is amazing. I've never seen a Stetson liner in that color. When do you think that hat was made?

I found in a market place this hat, like paste, unlined , ribbon like is, soft, smoth, in $ 100 pesos ($ 8.00 USD), this is a new to me, was cleaned, desinfected and used, is very warm now wich winter begins, Hatter an me believe is rabbit hair, but can not say who is the maker ¡¡¡

Wow, I like the color combination. The ribbon could use a little work, but otherwise it looks great.

Later

So many new hats, guys. My congrats to all!

Garrulus, interesting Caps for sure. Do you wear it?

I have worn it now a couple days, makes a nice winter hat in a colder climate, it reminds me of one of these hats in this post http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?63994-Vintage-Finnish-Hats&p=1451115&viewfull=1#post1451115

As I said I got the white one because of it's historical meaning, not because it fits me (although that is nice too, it has the tag of 58 inside it). I have more pictures of the white one if anyone is interested. It is a really old one since it was part of the Swedish uniforms of 1910, 1923 and 1939.

150719541, that is a super cool acquisition! I really like that bow as is. Very nice!

Mr. Garrulus, a warm and toasty hat like that might come in handy for the projected blizzard this weekend!

Please forgive my posting of extra photos, but I haven't left the house today (my 5 year old son is home sick) and decided to have a bit of fun with my new camera and most recently acquired hats. Thanks for your indulgence!

Thanks!

Nice hat Tom

Oh yes, made it here without a flaw and super fast! I'll be wearing it when I run my errands this afternoon. Tried it on and it fits perfect. I'd be interested in that CD, if you decide to part with it!
