My Sears stingy I bought from FL member Scott Wood. This hat fits as if it was made for my head. My new favorite hat.
Thanks Scott!

My new old Penneys 3X Marathon!

This is the lid I won on eBay last Sunday and it was in a nice USPS box on my front stoop when I got home from work today! Nice! I will probably change the ribbon and bow on it but I will leave the Wind Trolley. The ribbon is a bit loose and there are a couple of minor moth nibbles on the crown. Other than that, the hat is wonderful!

Color: Light Gray

Ribbon: Black grosgrain

Brim: 2-3/8”

Width: 11”

Length: 12-1/2”

Height: 4-3/4”

Interior Circumference: 21"


I have now given it a Diamond Crease or "The Mario" and a little brushin'.

It used to belong to somebody with the initials "JP" apparently.

Here's my silly mug defacing it! Hmm. Whenever I take a pic of myself it turns Sepia. Weird.[huh]

Like I said, I will probably replace the ribbon and bow with a medium width on both this weekend. I will post the updated pic when done.

Cheers,

RJ:)

I love that hat as is and look forward to seeing it with a new ribbon and bow. I love the "Mario" crease especially. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Thanks Ernest! The ribbon needs replacing as it is a little worn near the edges of the bow and is showing the beginnings of fraying a bit.:( No worries! I can fix it.:D

Glad you like "The Mario". That's my favorite crease. Very sharp looking I think.

Cheers,

RJ:)

So glad that you like it, it really is a nice hat. You probably noticed that the feathers were an afterthought stuck on the side of the box in an envelope lol. I did that after saw that you do indeed wear them lol

Huh. Ribbon looks good and the bow is unique. But I guess
there must be a lot of damage not visible in the pictures. Nice hat.

Don't Panic! I was able to save both the ribbon and bow and snug it up nicely. All is saved and looking perfect. I didn't have to replace any of it except a little black thread.
