Nice pork pie Michael. Did it come that way or did you create it? Coney fur, they are elusive little critters, nice find.
Thanks Red. I sort of recall it came with a center dent. It as a local find last fall and is somewhat worse for the wear. I set it aside and forgot about it, but now I'm adding it to my collection of bicycling hats and caps. Those are the ones I wouldn't cry salty tears over if they blew off in traffic. Not to say I don't like the way it looks. I seem to be noticing a lot of hats bent like this one in 50s-early 60s tv and movies I've been watching lately.

I don't have a porker as of yet, but it is a style that does have some history!

Trip to Irrigon, Oregon, for a Celebration of Life. Mark was a teacher, husband, father and a great friend to many. We had a nice trip, but it was somber as well knowing Mark was gone.

Rainy and windy when we left, windy and dry in eastern Oregon, then back to rain as we approached Portland.

Seriously great carne asada at this family run joint in Hermiston.

What's this??? We took a chance and, surprisingly, these are not bad at all. Add some eggs over easy and it'd almost be like having chicken fried steak and eggs... almost.

Today for church I wore one of my favorites if not my favorite (so far). I think it's pretty unique. I think it's a late 1940s Crofut & Knapp. Anybody have any other opinions for the date? The color is a bluish gray. Depending on the lighting it's almost a periwinkle. The hatband and brim treatment are mauve. Yeah that's right, mauve. I'm secure!
