    Too small for a hat, what could it be...

    1) Ooo, what's this the postman brought me this morning, it's from the USA but the box looks a little small for a hat. Unless it's severely folded... 2) Ok, let's open it up and see what we have. Oh right, lots of paper, and another box inside, ACE staples... [huh] Don't remember...

    Pre 1915 green onyx clock

    Bought this a few days ago from a local antique 'Clock and Barometer Shop'. It is a presentation clock, presented to mark 50 years service by a Great Western Railway Company railway worker from 1865 to 1915, so that gives a clue as to the clock age. The case is green onyx with gilt / gold leaf...

    Sending from UK to USA

    :eek: :eek: I sent my Art Fawcett head measuring device back yesterday to the USA and was stunned to find that it would cost me £49 ($70) to send it Global Priority Mail, whereas for Art to send it to from USA to me via the same method only cost $31, less than half the price! Weight was only...

So here's the pictures of my attempt, and interestingly I found that the hat seems to have developed...

    Horsehide bomber jacket

    :) and :eusa_doh: at the same time... I forgot I'd put this as a minimum bid on Ebay and have just won it, is a nice item but more expense with only $1.34 at Paypal rates to my feeble 1 UK Pound... lol What actual age might it be, any ideas? Looks well 'weathered' anyway... The Item...

    Nice hats in 1954 White Christmas

    Some nice fedoras and boaters to be seen here, enjoy... your comments very welcome. A great diamond crease (I think?) on the grey fedora, left: Virtually no bash on Bing's fedora here, and not quite a simple center crease, it has what looks like a straight back edge on it. And what on...

    Stetson Engineers Cap

    As an engineer (train driver UK) I have long been trying to decide on appropriate head wear while at work. I have once or twice taken various fedoras or tilley hats but never found them all that practical, partly because the cab side window is quite narrow. And I'm not keen on the standard...
