I was wondering that too. I just assumed it was Couric's... ;)

Great looking hat by the way![/QUOTE]
Ha!

And just to help clarify... one Couric equals 2.5 lbs according to the European Fecal Standards and Measurements office.

P.S. thanks for the compliments on the Knox.

Despite Jeremy's excellent suggestion that the unit is the Couric, that is not the case.

It's perfectly clear.

17.83.... The unit of measurement is therefore self-evident.

Great looking Milan, brother. Beautiful ribbon.

P.S. Have fun driving your choo choo. [emoji6]

Akubra Reef at the San Juan de Dios market, a real old place where you can find ANYTHING, from food to animals to, clothes, Leather items, smuggled items to real Hechiceros who perform "limpias" or cleanings of bad energy, and, I was about to forget about it, the only real Hat Maker in town !!

Wholesome, family entertainment (usually, sort of) too, wasn't it Terry?! Good ol' Haystack Calhoun, Killer Kowalski, Mad Dog Vachon; flying-drop-kicks and the occasional "foreign object..." Those were the good ol' days, I think.
You're absolutely right, Charlie. Those were definitely the good old days. Also remembering Flying Fred Curry and The Sheik. In more recent times it was Roy Mercer vs Goldberg

Wearing my most recent conversion, Resistol Stagecoach. Finished just this morning. This poor hat's been through the rough. It's been through four separate conversions, scores of reshapings, and several ribbon changes. It has a nice tall boxy crown with a 2 5/8 brim and 1 5/8 contrasting ribbon. I'll post more pics in the Conversion Corral later.
