    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    OK, I am going to say up front that there are no photos attached to this new hat submission. I will try to get some done before too long, but there is a big problem with that. This color just doesn't photograph well. I am talking about my new ArtLite Black Cherry. It was done in the same style...

    WOW. What a beautiful Panama! And that ribbon "fits" the hat perfectly. I really want to see it on you.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Just have to show another of Art's creations, an ArtLite in Chocolate. 5 1/2 with 2 5/8 brim with narrow binding. Tone-on-tone ribbon and binding. Removable liner. Love this hat, so comfortable, and can be worn with jeans or a suit. Feels right to shove it back on my head at the end of a long day.

    Thank you so much, Art, for such wonderful hats. And thanks for the feedback, guys. I am not ever around fedora wearers, and have actually been unsure of how I look in them. Your feedback helps propel me on to the next ones I am considering. Today, I have been wearing the one that I grab most...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    I am not a pro photographier, so not sure how to adjust the saturation and color. One indication of how the Charcoal's darkness doesn't come out in the photos is to look at the ribbons on these two hats. Different ribbons, but both charcoal and equally dark. Perhaps this will come out better in...

    Trying to get started with sharing my VS prizes. Here are a few quick pics of two of them. Will get around to noggin shots if these on "Uncle Noogie's" skull work. i uploaded my photos to photobucket, but none of the links offered would be accepted by the pop-up in the Lounge site. Can someone...

    Love these new ones. I have a Mojave in my sights already, and that ribbon treatment is giving me ideas for what it may become. Beautiful hats, Art!

    Federation IV sizing

    I seem to be in between a 58-59 by measurement. I ordered the Fed IV in the Heritage Deluxe in 58. It arrived with a cardboard band block that was holding the band tightly open, and right off the bat it was a size large. But within only a few hours, it settled in to just larger than a 58 and has...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Thank you OK. I have placed it in a bag with the newspaper, and will wait... Has anyone here ever used the product Nok-Out on a hat? It promises to address the mold-related issue, which is what this smells like.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    It makes me think that it was "deodorized" when it was packed, and that then wore off. Hadn't heard about the newspaper. May try that.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Rats! :( I have done well with two previous Ebay hat purchases, but recently received a Beaver Brand. It is in great condition, and in the original box. But within two days of opening the box, the musty old odors began to flow out, worsening steadily. Problems are that the hat is not wearable...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Yes, it was wonderful to receive the USPS notice that two hats (a Dove/Charcoal ribbon and a Chocolate ArtLite) are on the way from Art as of yesterday. Woo Hoooo!!! And I just got back from the Post Office, where I sent three hats to him to do his Art on.
