Now there's something you don't see everyday. Very cool, both literally and figuratively.

Thanks Serge. It’s def that time of year.That hat and shirt go great together. Very summery!
Ottmar Reich possibly late 1930s early 1940s. I don't wear Straw Hats often but this one came with a Felt Hat find from about 3 months of months ago. I tend to think this hat is older because it came from an East German source and Ottmar Reich was located in West Germany.
Thanks Red. It’s a nice hat to wear. Taking me a while to get used to the stovepipe crown. Congrats on your 10k posts again.Oooooh! I like it. Super condition and epic lines. Impressive Bowen.
Hey Greg thanks. Yea think we are one of the few with the Churchill’s. Gotta be a 100 out there somewhere. Funny how you ignore a hat till it speaks to you. HaBowen, when I first started viewing the pics I thought it was the 50 as well. I have one as you know. That's quite a snag, sir. Enjoyed seeing it.
Bowen, I have a couple of them myself. They're great for eBay money. I'm too hard on straws for a Super Fino.View attachment 120305 View attachment 120306 View attachment 120307 View attachment 120308 Greetings All:
I want to thank everyone for all the kind comments these last many months, especially those i haven’t thanked personally. All are very appreciated, my fellow loungers. I’ve been blessed with some nice hats and i love sharing them with you all. Otherwise it’s just the dog and she’s not impressed. Just encroaches her habitat. Lol
Today a hat nobody appreciates in the rearview mirror and def not standing outside your driver’s window!! Yipes!!

Be well. Bowen

Excellent restoration Doug. Love that corded ribbon. Nice crease.Great kids today gents!
I cleaned 2 hats last Tuesday in the white gas/naptha bath. Cleaning took about 15 minutes. Filtering the gas back into cans took another hour! Those little coffee filters plug up pretty fast. I was amazed at the amount of dirt removed, how much better the hats look and feel, and crease, too. Very pleased.
Here is one of the cleaning candidates, an older Champ I picked up several weeks back. It looked as though someone tried to clean it with water or a water/vinegar mix. There were white lines left in the felt, and the crease was really wonky and lopsided. Did I say how dirty this one was? Much dirtier than I thought.
Brim for days! Love that color Harv!Big brim for the sun today. Esther Weis
Mike, thank you sir!Brim for days! Love that color Harv!
I do like the weave on those. Those boots are cool, not my style anymore, but I could be persuaded.Bowen, I have a couple of them myself. They're great for eBay money. I'm too hard on straws for a Super Fino.
