Everyone needs at least one Deerstalker, Red. And it happens I watched the 1959 version of the Hound of the Baskervilles last night.Mmmmm minty!
Cool Deerstalker Michael. You are the one to pull that look off the best.
Thank you! @canerodmaker does great work!
Good eyes Chas! The 'burban indeed. That car seat only has 5 weeks left. Then he can ride like the rest of us!
Best pics of the day right there, D.d. That's what it's all about.Putting up Christmas decorations and running errands with my granddaughter. Wearing my Akubra Stockman.

Have a good one,

Thanks Scotty. It is an interesting find from the bay early in my hat addiction. It has great feel to the felt, I think I'll play with it further. The liner for this San Francisco Hatter does have some age to it. Old style oilskin tip cover. The original sweat was toast, so I had Mike Miller replace it and the ribbon. The original ribbon was the same size, just a mousy brown color and in bad shape.
It's a great hat. And yes, the fabric in the coat is some great stuff. Out of the '50s I suspect. But when I was out and about today the only thing that got honorable mention from a bystander was my shoes.

Thanks to everybody for the birthday wishes yesterday. It was very nice y'all are the best. I hope Ant and Justin had great days yesterday
Perhaps next year, we should all meet up in Kansas City and have a little party!
Or maybe we can meet in Dallas, and I can wear this dark charcoal Mallory.
Despite my (somewhat) aging bones, I'm feeling somewhat youthfully smart under this lid.
Sent directly from my mind to yours.
Great pic of a great hat!
Thank you sir!
Thank you
I had Mike Gannon go a full 6" in crown. Kind of a challenge not to bump into things with it.
I would accept that challenge.
Lovely indeed!Adam Premier that I received yesterday. 5 1/2" open crown, 2 1/2" brim.

First day of cold and gray, we went under zero tonight
Formal clothing for a couple of meetings with homburg Mossant de Luxe
Black with very "thin" crown with very curled brims
It was probably produced at the end of World War II
The felt is very soft and malleable. Bought for shape, it's not my size, but it's perfect. Mysteries of the sizes
I thank you heartily for your yesterday likes on Borsalino from Dutch land

I wish. And given my current bent, I wouldn't travel back to when the stuff I want was being made, but back to the mid to late '60s when you could find the Salvation Army full of the stuff for $1 or $2.
Thanks Charlie. I've found some decent hats recently, but that suit might be my single best find ever. At least until the novelty wears off. Ha ha.
While I was waiting around for high tea this afternoon I decided to try out the deerstalker I found yesterday.

Wingtip balmorals from Porto-Ped, most likely made during the 1960s.
Thanks,
