I acquired this on eBay recently. The hat ribbon showed in the eBay posting as being pretty wrinkled, front and rear, as if it had been shoved down inside another hat. When I received it, the hatbox insides had been replaced by a taped-together circle of corrugated cardboard, too small in...
After several months of admiring Art's hats on this forum, I recently placed my first order with Art, and the hat arrived yesterday. It is beautiful to my eye, and I post photos here for your enjoyment and comments. Art was most accommodating in producing exactly what I asked for, which was a...

Here is a medium-brown Stetson Stratoliner I acquired recently on OFAS and sent right off to Duane at TheFedoraStore for a quick clean and block. Just came back, I think lookin' good--pix submitted for your approval and comments. The felt seems to be in great shape for a 40's hat. In some of...
...gray Open Road on OFAS. It appears to be in nice shape and a good color, so I am excited to receive it. I will post pix when it comes in. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=018&item=280015095359&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1
Here are some pix of this hat. I hand-bashed it as some of you suggested, and it worked out pretty nicely, I think. I didn't use any steam and it holds the bash just fine. I am very happy with the hat--probably my favorite. You can click the thumbnails for a larger view if you like...
I received this well-used Borsalino from OFAS, and I really like it. The felt is good quality and undamaged, but it needs to go off for a thorough cleaning and rehab. Before it does, I would appreciate any thing you can tell me about it--age, etc. The brim width is 2 3/8" and the crown...
Just won it on eBay. Okay, it isn't new, except to me, and it looks like it can use a lot of work, possibly including a new sweatband and liner. A roll of the dice, but I am being hoping it will turn out to be a great hat in the end. Plus, it is a 7 1/2. A note for any who read the eBay...
Do you carry a rain cover for your best hats? I searched the forum, but didn't find much discussion about it. I think that some vintage hats apparently came with rain covers that fit into a pouch inside the hat. Is there a source for rain covers? A google search turned up covers for cowboy...
