    There is a vintage Stetson Open Road 3X khaki color 7 1/2 on FB if anyone is interested. Not mine, I just spotted it and it is the size some of you need. I don't see a location but it does list shipping.

    Did Stetson ever make Royal DeLuxe models with the liner partly made of mesh? The top section is normal printed logo with plastic but the normal vertical surround is mesh. I can't remember seeing anything featured here like it. Ebay item is my source...

    The Untouchables, AKA The Fantastic Fedoras

    I was tuned into Decades channel and they have The Untouchables in the lineup on Fri nights. That show is a great showcase of hats. Low crown, medium crown, high crown, medium brim, wide brim, raw edge, bound edge, and bashes of all varieties. Most certainly not the show to watch to suppress...

    JFK remembrance and hats

    I'm in DFW extended metro area. Yesterday, on one of the many specials for this 50th tribute, the JFK kills hats thing surfaced once again. The commentator made the statement about JFK's lack of wearing hats seemed to have set the tone for men to cease wearing hats. Then they showed his...

    Source of James Spader's hats {The Blacklist}

    James Spaders is the star of NBC's The Blacklist. His character wears nice fedoras. I get a Graham Thompson vibe from most. Has there been any word of who his hat wardrobe is sourced from? I did a little searching and it seems he is a hat guy and he was the one who insisted his character...

    Portland OR hat museum? CW top hats

    Has anyone been to the Hat Museum in Portland OR? There is a mini-article about in on Collector's Weekly page. The other thing I find odd about CW is how many top hats are on there right now.

    Gangster Squad movie hats

    Gangster Squad looks to be another hat filled movie set in the 40's. Someone I know had a Ryan Gosling photo in period clothes wearing a great looking gray fedora with mid-size ribbon on their Facebook page. I googled it and found some more photos during production. The photos had Dec 2011 time...

    Has your multiples of similar hats ever caused you to......

    Be asked to loan a few hats for groomsmen for a wedding? For other events? It is (and was) western hats and they are mostly beaver or 100% beaver but not some one-off super special vintage lids. I was hesitant but in both cases they were great friends and knew the importance of taking good...

    I didn't watch DWTS but I saw this in an online news site. Mr Macchio is dressed well and sporting a nice lid in this dance number. He even does a re-snap and a bash adjustment at the end...

    James Taylor was s'porting a very nice Open Road or OR clone when he sang with Zach Brown (I think it was Zach Brown). Nice looking lid on him. I'm not keeping up with music scene so is this his new "look"?

    Cool old Stetson display case

    http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/atq/2239304349.html Too bad they modified it for a TV. Probably diminished its value to something FAR below his asking price. (sorry folks, this is as close to Antiques Roadshow as I get)

    Cool old TV hat sightings

    I was watching HOT network, one of the free airwave TV channels that the digital switchover provided. They show old TV shows and THE LAWLESS YEARS came on. Burt Reynolds as a very young thug in a very high crown center dent mid-ribbon bound edge of about 2 3/8 brim I'd say. It is in black and...

    Pavlovian response?

    I am wondering if any of you, maybe how many of you, have developed conditioned responses to the mail persons and other package delivery persons? I get almost giddy at the sight of postal delivery trucks and brown UPS trucks. I almost invited the UPS guy and his family for Christmas dinner...

    Home re-flanging of a western??

    I have this Bailey 100% beaver that has developed a snap brim. Snap brim on a 4 inch brim western isn't really what I want nor what looks good on a western. Has anyone re-flanged their western successfully at home with readily available tools? I'm thinking a hat stretcher inserted and then wet...
