WOW I like that hat! Casual with a hint of American West. Nicely done, good Sir!

I hear they have medication for that now. ;)

Ah, of course, Borsalino. Maker of fine hats for souvenir shops and truck stops all over the world. :rolleyes:

At the very least it seems a waste of good wool/fur felt.

Plant, no. Leaf, yes. Smoke 'em if ya' got 'em!

Probably, but we may never know because the seller hasn't been back here in the last four years.

"Yes, I too would like to see the eclipse."

Probably by a Nick Fouquet admirer. :rolleyes:

Considering the bow is on the wrong side of the crown of that hat, and the coat buttons are on the wrong side as well, I'd guess the photographer accidentally or intentionally "flopped' the negative before he made that print. That, or it's actually a little girl. Still a great photo!

I've most often seen that style referred to as a "Coachman" hat, because the coach drivers in Europe wore them.

It was indeed The Stooges. They used the gag in one short with Curly, and again with Shemp after Curly had to retire.

Playing card, no. But, just for laughs, every once in a while I've stuck one of those phony baloney "PRESS" cards on one of my hats: Co-workers and friends who appreciate old movies got the gag immediately, others looked puzzled for a while until they worked up the nerve to ask me about it. ;)

So, probably wool rather than rabbit fur or hare, which might keep the price down a bit...or not... Not that I need one, but it could come in handy now that we're getting rain again in California. ;)

When you get to the part of the credits that says "The End", you can stop. Dial of Density is not worth the time spent trying to figure it out and, with all of the injuries he's sustained over the years, Mr. Ford is just too old to continue playing Indy.

With all due respect, I disagree. Hats, eyeglasses, any other item of clothing, car, motorcycle, the "right" girl or guy, food, art, etc., it doesn't really matter. If YOU like something, to hell with what everyone else thinks--wear it, eat it, hang it on a wall in your home, drive it, ride...
