    Just gonna leave this here....

    Since we all know where felt comes from....here's a cross section of a rabbit hair magnified 670 times. I figured somebody around here might find it interesting.

    50s (?) Dobbs milan, 7 1/2

    Fantastic vintage straw. Has a 2 1/2 inch brim, and A cool (literally) open weave to the straw between the perforated sweat band and the light silk pug. A medium cocoa brown, with an off white ribbon that almost has a pinkish hue in certain light. Letting this one go for $60 + shipping. Sent...

    60s or 70s Stetson milan straw, 7 3/8

    1 7/8 brim, crown is 4" in front and back, rising to 5" on the sides. I measured this one at a little shy of 23", but it seems to sit fine on my 23 1/2" head, so my measuring skills may not be ninja level. The hat has a nice silvery gray sheen to the color that didn't show up that well in the...

    Stetson Saxon 7 3/8

    Up for grabs is a modern Royal quality Saxon. I beat the center dent into a diamond crease. Not the greatest hat ever, but far from the worst. Potential buyers from warmer climates be warned, this is some heavy duty felt. Definitely cooler weather wear. I bought it for an everyday hat, but it's...

    Late 50s/early 60s Royal Stetson

    Marked 7 3/8. A little snug for me, so off it can go. A dark charcoal grey color with a 2" brim and a wide 2" ribbon. A very serviceable vintage hat. Asking $50 + shipping. If you'd like more pics or details please ask. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

    1960s Resistol 7 3/8

    XXX beaver, kitten finish, felted edge. This is an absolutely amazing felt. Paper thin, a strong breeze will re-crease it. It's a little on the snug side for me, so I'm letting it go. With the brim weighing in at 1 3/4", it's probably stinger than most here care for, so I'll price it to move...

    Cheap caps.

    Wow! All caps sold in no time flat! It's getting time for autumn, and that means cooler temps and brisk days. Get yourself a nice cap for those days when the wind is blowing those leaves hard enough to take the fedora off your head. All are marked size L, and fit me just fine. I normally wear...

    Lee heathered longhair pork pie 7 1/8

    Bought this beauty on eBay a while back listed as 7 1/4 to 7 3/8. That would've been perfect. It has no size tag, but under the sweat is marked 1/8. Maybe that's why it rides a little high on my head. I considered having it re-worked, since it is such a gorgeous finish and is my only long hair...

    Show us your weird and unusual stuff.

    Unique, unusual, or just plain odd. I know you all got something a little out of the ordinary. Let's see it. There are a couple of cool curiosity shops downtown here. I found this mounted bird in one of them today. It'll make good company for my jackalope. What've you got?

    Cascade Plunge

    Cascade Plunge was a huge (80 x 220 feet) public swimming pool located on the east side of Birmingham, AL. It was opened back in the mid 20s and lasted into the 70s. It was fed by a natural spring, and the water cascaded down a concrete waterfall at one end of the pool. There was also a...

    Hawaiian shirts and bowling shirts, xl

    Rayon, xl Rayon/cotton blend. XL. Preswick & Moore I think is the brand. Pattern is same on back as on front. Rockabilly/hot rod theme. This one is actually a generous large, but it's not generous to fit me well anymore. Brand is Reds and. Material is poly microfiber. It feels like the...

    Newer black fur felt stingy brim

    Made by Scala, model is called Sorrento. Supposed to be a 7 1/4, but it is to small for me. I usually fall between 7 1/4 - 7 3/8 depending on brand, this might fit 7 1/8 o.k. Sorry I don't have a good way to measure the inside diameter. The felt on this one is really soft, and has a velvety...

    Show off your ashtrays

    We've shown off some cool old lighters, now let's see some ashtrays. I know you've got 'em. I don't even smoke any more, but I still hang onto mine. Just in case, I guess. Here's a few of them. Sent from my XT1030 using Tapatalk

    Elbow patches

    Anyone know if it's feasible to remove the elbow patches from a tweed jacket? Are they just stitched on, and popping the stitches and a little steam makes them go away, or is there perhaps some kind of adhesive underneath that would just leave a mess? Any thoughts on this would be appreciated...

    Vintage roadside

    I've been looking at cool photos of old gas stations on another thread, and while chatting with fellow lounger Ghostsoldier I discovered that at least one other lounger besides myself digs all things roadside; gas stations, diners, drive-ins, motels, tourist traps, neon signs, you name it, so...

    question about red wing iron rangers

    I've had a couple of pairs of 877s and I can't say enough about how comfortable they are. Earlier this year I got some heritage round toes built on the same wedge sole-pretty comfy as well but the vamp lining is a denim-like kind of cloth whereas the 875s and877s have an all leather lining which...
