St. Ignatz, what Torts said above - you are on a roll!

If anyone might be able to shed some light on this hat, I'd certainly appreciate it. If not, I'm content that it looks good and fits me well.

I can't shed much light on it, but I can say I have one, too.
Mine is a really great, super dark charcoal gray. It has an underwelt
that is ironed in such a way that it looks almost like a Cavanagh Edge.
Same box, same liner, same tags (except mine is a 7 1/2 Long Oval and
fits me like it was "Custom Made" for my brain pan). Really tough felt,
but kinda nice, in a bullet-proof kinda way. One of my favorite hats for
sitting on the front porch and smoking a cigar... when it's cool enough
to wear such a snug, thick hat. I would not describe mine as light weight.

Enjoy it.

Wow - I love that hat!

 

[Bingles]

Just got this yesterday through ebay. I have no idea what the style name is or what year it is from, but I Liked the color and the design. It does have a few small pits in the felt (mainly on top), but otherwise is in great condition. It's quite lightweight too.

-- That looks GREAT on you!!! Very hot.
As for the hat. The style is a c-crown or teardrop. It's a fur-felt, and not a bad quality felt since it is a beaver blend. I have never seen that maker before, so I can't date it too well, but since the leather band is black and not brown, I'm GUESSING it's more recent.

Dreispitz, that Mayser is quite sharp. Very nice pick-up!

JM, that Bee hat does look very good on you. It looks like a quality item and I think you did quite well to get it.

Two new thin ribbons.

First is a Dobbs Westward.
The flash washed out the color on this picture. It is a medium gray and the band has a slightly purpleish sheen to it.

Disney Fifteen. This is a beauty! It is a shade of peach I've envied since seeing Baron Kurtz's peach Portis.
The felt is very supple and easily takes any shape.

The liner is detached but in pristine condition.

 

[HarpPlayerGene]

Great hats, Feraud. Especially that Disney!

Very very nice thin ribbons there Feraud !!:eusa_clap

 

[bolthead]

What a great looking hat. I've heard of Bee Hats before, most of them were straws though. :eusa_clap

It looks like JTL put that crease in it for you.

 

[feltfan]

Feraud, I envy you that Disney.

As for Bee hats, since Lefty is apparently dozing:

I think there is a four-character minimum for the keyword search feature here, which makes it pretty useless for a minimal word search, such as Bee.:eusa_doh: "Bee Hats" brings up some threads, though.
