Unique color scheme

Three hats back from Ignacio's today. First, Royal Scott.

Second, Resistol. Thin, soft, and obedient felt. Nice hand, too. I remember reading the triangular O in Resistol indicated a time period, but don't remember which. Help?

My Excellent Quality Feather Weight Bowler showed up today. It is a 7 1/2 as the seller stated, but not a long oval so it doesn't fit quite as it should, as expected. It does seem to be in quite good shape though, a little wear on the brim binding, but over all it's very nice.

I don't know too much about the age or how it fits into Stetson's quality tiers. I have been looking at some of the liner/sweatband threads. I would appreciate any help you might be able to offer.

Third, Lee New Whirl. Original price $8.50, Bronze Label. I like it! Thanks, Bob!

You wear it well Max!

A most excellent bowler! Good to see them in such great shape. An Excellent Quality is a higher level and the Exposition Medal on the sweat I think puts it back into the Twenties.

Thank you for the information, I wasn't able to find any pictures on the forum with this liner/sweatband combo.

Great felt on this one and in a mint condition.

I bought this Borsalino for Bubani (Ravenna) today. I just liked the way it looks on the pictures. Needs a bit of steam i think.
Pictures from the seller.

I received this wonderful 50s Stetson Fifteen 3X from @Rmccamey today. The 50s 3X was my first vintage love and this hat totally re-ignites that passion. The only problem with this hat is having to wait for the cooler temperatures to arrive so I can wear it!

This felt is navy blue rather than black. In person, the blue is distinct enough, but I included a black object in one photo to make it more obvious (though I’m not sure it actually helps).

Forgive the Legos. Building with them is part of my therapy program. COVID disrupted my fine motor skills so I get to act like I’m a kid again - they are laying all around the house now.

Beautiful hat, Nathan. And you're never too old to build with lego!

I am impressed at the maturity level of some of the lego sets. They are definitely not just for kids anymore!

That is a beauty

Thank you gentlemen.

I might even get a chance to wear it outside this coming week since the weather forecasters have scheduled some cooler temps for us!

Great looking Stetson Fifteen, Nathan. As Stefan and your good self point put, Lego is definitely not just for kids. Hope your fine motor-skills soon come back.
