Knox Fifty today. It was in a back row of one of the safes, so I forgot I had it!

That is a DAMN fine-looking hat, sir!

"Hard to find" doesn't mean it's on the bottom of the pile does it?
It's a beauty, Max.

Mmm... no... I have them in alphabetical order.

Thank you!
Your post reminded me of the time I went to the US embassy in Mexico City, where an Immigration officer helped me to acquire US citizenship through my mother. When he handed me my passport I said "Thank you so much, Sir!", to which he replied "There's no need to call me Sir, Max".
-"I know that, Sir. Thank you, Sir!!!"

I haven't seen or heard of another Knox 50, so I may post it in the "Hard-To-Find" thread later today.

It’s just like New Hat Day. Though I’m pretty sure I would not forget if I had this one. You know you have quite the amazing collection when this is one that “gets pushed to the back of one of the hat safes”. Or maybe rephrase…. simply. Hat safes!

Hope you are doing well, Max.

Out of all the brands and styles I have, Penney's Marathon has to be a fave.

Thank you, Joe. My paternal grandfather's name was José Tejeda, and my maternal William Joseph Nichols.
I love both the Spanish and English versions of the name... but I prefer José.

Beautiful sunset today!

Another beauty, Max, and a fantastic sunset.

Thanks Jay!

I believe the only Bee Hats hat I’ ve had was an unusual two tone part wool part fur felt style. I do think they were a decent maker. Would have to see the hat in question to comment further

Thanks and I'll post pics when I get it.

Cinema time in the baby (powder?) blue JBS 3X.

If you want to see a pretty impressive collection of what look to me to be late 40s and 50s lids, I readily recommend “The Boys in the Boat.” Unfortunate that the setting is 1936, but the hats are pretty cool nonetheless - most of them very much resemble this one (different colors, of course, but the quality looked very good with only a few exceptions of cheaper or more modern looking ones).
