Nice ones, Mike. I keep looking for a Maclachlan.
Thanks a lot. That's the first decent-looking Maclachlan I've seen for sale with a somewhat wide brim. Hope I'm not disappointed with it. It might be at the bottom of the Maclachlan quality ladder, not sure, but it was by no means an inexpensively priced hat. I stumbled across it late last night and it was an impulse purchase. It looked good enough that I was afraid if I didn't act, someone else would grab it. Didn't dawn on me at the time, but it was sold by another Lounge member.

About 1930's Western style hat, unknown maker. 3 3/4 inch brim and 6 1/2 inch open crown. Another one to salvage. Needs new sweatband and cleaning. It's pretty nasty now. It was sitting in Albuquerque, NM in these photos.

1950's Knox Twenty. Said to be olive green. Has regular Knox HCA mfg tag but also the more uncommon HCA tag. One tag says 6 7/8 and the other says 7 and a fraction. It has a nice Cavanagh Edge and for $25 I couldn't resist.
