That sure cleaned up nice. What is the little pin at the rear of the bow?A little chilly this morning. Time for felt with this stingy brim Charles Knox 40, recently cleaned in a naptha bath... much dirtier than I had thought. A 60's or 70's creation? But mighty fine "Cavanagh edge" felt.

I need to get out on the bicycle for a little E and E, errands and exercise. Haven't decided what to wear for that yet, but it will be back to the Stetson when I get home crop by Michael A2012, on Flickr
Have a great Wednesday,

Out and about today with a Stetson Premier Stratoliner in cornhill. This was a stubborn, unforgiving hat to bash; a big thank you to Art Fawcett who kindly rescued it for me and gave it a mild diamond bash. Thickish felt, still stubborn, seems more like a carpet than hat felt, won't take a sharp pinch in the front; I wonder, are they are all this way? Crown height is a bit low for me, so it's currently a nice entry in the beater/casual category. View attachment 84086
It's the same design as the symbol in the liner.That sure cleaned up nice. What is the little pin at the rear of the bow?
Ha ha, yes. And there is a sort of funny story in there involving an unknown barber shop with the barber turning out to be a Chinese grandmother and me saying off the ears. Does make it easier to see the hat brims. And I do like the brim on this hat.Got yer ears lowered ... looks good
Great hat
My hats always fit a touch better after a fresh shinglingHa ha, yes. And there is a sort of funny story in there involving an unknown barber shop with the barber turning out to be a Chinese grandmother and me saying off the ears.

Thanks,

That's the only way I can eat 'em. Once they cool down they taste like something that came out of the south end of a northbound dog....Hot Crispy Creams are hard to resist .
10 sec in the microwave returns them to their former glory. Especially with a hot cup of black coffee.That's the only way I can eat 'em. Once they cool down they taste like something that came out of the south end of a northbound dog.
Must "complete" the Stagecoach webpage.I love your collection of Stage Coach hats, Joao, and this one is a favorite.
Looks great, even though the top touches your crown!
