Wow! You have a library of your own there. Would you happen to have the ISBN number for Stetson Hats or Hat Talk. They both sound like something that I could sit down and pour over whilst drinking a Martini---stirred not shaken. I don't like cloudy Martinis.

Ok, I contacted the author of Hat Talk and Handmade Felt Hat. I will soon have both of those in my collection.
Are there any others that are really essential to those interested in Felt Fedoras and how to date the styles and blocks---lots of pictures please. LOL LOL
Come to think of it, Andy, how is your book coming along? You know the one I wanted you to write with lots of pictures of your collection and your own inimatable style of writing. I think you could really put a nice manual together for the beginner. You certainly know enough and are familiar with the best of the past and present. When does the book come out? I will buy the first copy (signed by the author of course)

Regards to all,

J

Thanks for the references. I wouldn't have thought that there had been that many books written expressly about hats. I own The Panama Hat Trail, and must make my next purchase Hat Talk, of which I've heard nothing but good.

Also, is there a book that covers (no pun intended) hat etiquette, the wearing of hats, the shaping etc?

I have an early '40's Emily Post that I consult often. It covers everything a gentleman of vintage bent might want to know, from fork selection and packing for trips, to the wearing of hats and other attire.

Only two, The Panama Hat Trail, by Tom Miller, and Panama, A Legendary Hat, by Martine Buehet.
