Slick suit, Michael. Whats the story on that tweed?Was out playing with my sister and BIL today. Ran across a new suit, but same old, same old Stetson Royal Deluxe hat is one top with it

Just finished up on this one yesterday. This was a prior conversion I did on a black Resistol Western that Anthony gifted to me. I didn't care much for the block that I first used, so I took it apart again and re-did it on a different block, one that was much straighter sided. This second blocking gave me a taller and open crown shape that I like much better now than before. Still, a black hat, though. I'm not a big fan of black hats. Not sure if the black color suits me. Although, I like the new crown shape much better. The thin ribbon I have on it isn't attached. I'm looking for a black 3/8 ribbon to put on it for an OR style bow and ribbon work. I'll have more pics in the conversion corral....

Thanks D.
Oh yeah.
I don't know much of a story about the suit. It came from an estate of a guy that had a lot of custom suits, but there are no labels in this one at all. The tweed is very heavy and woven with large yarns.

I was telling my sister today that my holy grail of suits were the large fleck tweeds that you see in the movies from the 30s, but I never see them. And then we go to the vintage store and this one is there. Ha ha. I need to get her to visit more often.
Thanks all,
Michael
Good to see you back around these parts.
Cold morning.
STOP!

Thank you buddy. I'm trying to find a black 3/8 ribbon somewhere to try and get it closer to that Stratish type look. Mike Mazurki wore a similar black thin ribbon in the film Noir movie, "Murder My Sweet", that I really liked. Not to mention the Whippet type hat that wore later in that same movie.
Thanks D. Whenever and wherever it's from, I'm pretty sure I will be wearing it a lot this winter. Great heavy fabric should suit my weather well. Several of the other suits I looked at were tailor dated to the early '60s.
