Good afternoon Gents! In a rush this p.m. but, Justin, (love the Crofut & Knapp), g.durand, dh66, David, Che, Rogera, AnA, Manfred,(good to see you again), Harv, Joao, job, nice collection of classics guys!

On this cloudy and mild afternoon from Central Ohio, I'm wearing my 3X OR conversion. This has become my "mostly everyday go to hat"...

A very good brim shape on that buffalo Joao.
Thank you. The crown could be higher but...

Knox Beaver 50. Very light Silverbelly, looks white at times, but a light SB.
Another nice one!

Taking in the sunset this evening in this old Stevens. It's "gold bond beaver"

I just reshaped it from a centerdent trying to get some of the taper out of the crown. Maybe I'll get a little more mileage out of it this way.

Took myself on a little road trip today, and the Crofut & Knapp joined once again. Came onto a small 1800s town. Was nice to get away :)

Harv, thank you so much, will do! That is a sharp Resitol. I wished I had more Place in my Car for my Resitol Shantung but so it's only the
Mayser that I have with me! :(

New (to me) Penney's Marathon
The postman tried to destoy it but the ebay seller packed it too well. HA! Steamed it to an open crown (on a 52 block, not the original 51 but this old felt took to the new shape just fine), a little brushing and it was good to go. Fits like a glove and will get lots of wear. For a b-grade J.C. Penny's hat it's surprisingly nice.
