Yes,it has. A lot has deterred me from the lounge. Winter is setting in, I'll try to drop in more often. Still running around in Sarah, met up with an old grade school crush, changed homes, somewhat....A few new 30s clothes, no new fedoras but a couple of new 'peaky's'. I see episode 5 is now...
came across this by accident looking for something for my gal. Not my size but looks good fellas.

Summer is finishing up, going into fall soon. When do the straw fedoras start going on sale or....if there is such a sale? End of Summer sale, Winter sale or Spring sale?

I just watched an episode of Boardwalk Empire and something was said that I missed when I first watched the series a few years back. It's where Al Capone attended a Bar Mitzvah and was told he should change hats, Al ask why, "this one not good enough" and he was told, he's a "man and not a boy...
I had to acquire a different rack, got this antique off Ebay. Now I've room for a few more. I haven't decided whether to include any fedoras. There might be a Flat Cap Rack Pact rebellion against the them!!! That's Fats Waller on the phonograph.
For the better part of ten years or more, I've been trying to find a fedora like the two in this youtube video or one that I can shape myself. I think hopefully I've found the fedora I just ordered from Akubra Federation IV Deluxe. Here is the video in it's original form so unless you can...
I've been researching fedoras for a few days now and even purchased one, a Stetson.

Just curious...…….
Passing time last night, I almost bought a Fedora!!! But, knowing I'd still be wearing my newsboys, I was able to refrain from hitting the buy button. Almost though on a Stetson from Hats in the Belfry!! When I awoke this morning and it was not still on my mind, I knew I had done the right thing. :D
I have the cooler/basket, folding table and chairs, thermoses, picnic case and all that goes inside, all from the 20s/30s. Along with a set of golf clubs to hit a few. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon...………..
Anyone else?
