The photos in the two posts directly above - HarpPlayerGene and a quote of a GClark post - am I the only one thinking "Separated at birth perhaps?" ;)

That's kinda' funny - I hadn't noticed it but there's a resemblance there alright.

Hey, GClark, my brother, can I borrow that jacket?! :D

I didn't know Stratoliners came in oxblood. That's really cool -

That's what I call the color and I believe the hat to be a Strat' but it could be some other maker's clone. Here's the thing: I bought it in an already refurbished state (see photos below) but that service had obviously been done years ago. I think "JayBee" was a brand name for John B. Stetson refurbishing at the time. This hat really has the quality and feel of the real thing but the original sweat and liner are long gone. [huh]

Hmmm - I guess I do see it
I never noticed a resemblance, but did think you were a good looking guy... :)

You can borrow the jacket if I can borrow some hats. You don't happen to be a 7 3/8 do you?
