Hey everyone!
Just got home from the dentist. Wore my Vanzina Pavia.

Glad it's done, but my lip will probably be numb for a few more hours. Hard to enjoy my coffee when it's dribbling down my chin...:(
Have a great day!

See Dudley Moore...

Drink it through a straw. I love the brim on this one so much! And it is so touchable looking.

This is another fine looking wool hat. Were European wools of a finer quality than what we see in the States? I would use Bailey or Scalia as an example, but my Bailey wool is not this "fine" looking.
Thanks! The American men's Wool Soft and Stiff Felt Hat Industry was very small prior to WWII but it was a totally different situation in Europe where Wool Soft and Stiff Felt Hats were very popular. It's really hard to explain this hat (and other old German & Austrian Wool Soft and Stiff Felts) without having it in hand. I prefer old German & Austrian Fur Felt Soft and Stiff Felt hats but the old German & Austrian Wool Soft & Stiff Felt Hats are unique in their own way (can't compare them to Wool Soft & Stiff Hats of today).

Steve, that's such an excellent hat! But maybe it's just a little too big for you? (maybe it should be sent directly to Oregon.....) ;) Actually, I've seen that some of the European hats run a touch small and I probably need a 60 cm hat size.
Thanks! Actually it's so soft and floppy I am sure it would fit but I am keeping it! :)

The Stetson Saxon in Cordova. Here I am in front of Paramount studios earlier today in Burbank, CA. It was a beautiful day so I thought it was time make my first post on here. Long over due

Welcome, Rafterman, and great first post on WHAYWT.

I wore my Royal Biltmore today in the sleet.
Oh and I met Dweezil Zappa. NBD...


Excuse my stupid face. But it's not every day you take a selfie with one of the greatest living guitarists.

Super cool. I was unable to see him in Columbus the other night, though I've been to six shows previously (I've now seen him more than his father). I'm sure the show was good, too - haven't seen a bad one yet. Did you get to meet Scheila G, too? Swooon!
