For some reason that popped into my head. It's a quote (as I recall) from the movie, And A River Runs Through It. Norman's soon to be wife, remarking at the hairstyle of Paul's native American girl when they were at the bar... a quick web search pulls up nothing like that from the movie, but there are sites that talk about the 1920's saying meaning "cool, bee's knees," etc.

I love it and it is officially stolen

Me and my brothers were known as the Berry's, or Berry Boys. So, Berry Best was an unofficial trademark throughout the school years.

...I'm a recent diamond convert

Me too. Well, semi recent. I really didn't care for Diamond creases when I joined The Lounge, but the people here are such a positive influence that I've since seen the error of my ways.

I have found that most hats tend to gravitate to a crease;I just go along for the most part.

Yep, and that's why mine have Teardrops or C-Crowns; I didn't think it was worth the arguments I'd have with my hats.

That would have been a shame.

I love the look of this hat
makes me wonder where it has been and what life it has led .... the things it has seen ... the holidays where it has hung on the hat rack ...
these are the things I think about when I see these pics

Same here, Anthony. One of the best things about collecting these old hats ,I think, is thinking about the places they have been. This one has lots of wear to the outside and is pretty close to mint on the liner and sweat. I wish I knew more about it's original owner.
