Sweet Rick, it looks like new! The pic of the sweat makes the felt look more green on my monitor.

Nice find Fabio. It's a british hat, Attaboy was a brand of the Denton Hat Company, first introduced in the 1930s (wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denton,_Greater_Manchester)

since I feel straw weather slowly approaching I made a purchase

I have recently really been digging the Sam Snead look when it comes to a summer hat ... I've had a few in the past but sent them on to other loungers because it just wasn't me at the time ... I think I am ready for this style now ... I dig it

so I grabbed this one at what I think is a great price of $45

Excellent, Anthony.

 

[Redfokker]

By the time you get it all cleaned up and ready to go, it will be straw weather. Nice Knox straw, Milan?

 

[BobHufford]

I'm going to be hat rich!!!

Well ... maybe not. (Don't hat shop on pain-killers)

I hear ya there Anthony, that Snead look is very classic....alot like Willam Holden's hat in Sabrina....I always dug that one too...so 1950's...yet timeless at the sametime..

This one is a bit better than the beater Whippet above. Gotta love used hat auctions where you can pick up a hat for 90% off of retail. This Texas Hatters beaver blend hat (with the hand carved and painted Lone Star Beer hat band) lists for around $850 new (yeah ... I don't get it either).

My Grandfather was Howard Wilson Hufford ... maybe this was meant to be.

They were a bit cheaper back in 1977.

I'll probably sell the hat band (which lists for $240 new) as I think this hat will look great with the beaded band my wife gave me for Christmas.
