Borchert Berlin W. date stamped August 6, 1952.
There are other places, I'm sure, but this one is on Vashon Island, WA. Vandals and thieves have struck many times, though, and not much other than the basic frame remains.
A thing of beauty, Jim. It all works.TGIF. Off to keep the world safe for democracy under the Gannon Mr. Natural.

A great Friday to all.
That whippet deserves a warm round of applause, Eric. Outstanding.Listening this morning to the national and international news (via my ear buds) on my dog walk. I am trying to make sense of the challenges that exist. A vtg.Stetson Whippet is perfect for the early morning. Love the brim details on this hat.

I think you did very well there, Fabio. Apart from the liner the hat looks to be in super condition.
The look of that felt just gets me, Justin. Lovely.1930s Zephyr Weight
Gorgeous, Alan. Nothing but quality as usual.My favorite spaghetti western.
Supercool, Matt. Great longhair and lovely shape of the crown.1930s Dobbs for the rest of the day and into the evening. I'm so grateful that I don't have to be grown up again until Monday.
Not an everyday hat, Mike. But it is a headturner for sure!
Great find, Steve! Its shape reminds me of the misto Topo one I found recently.Echter Borsalino "Gatesan" probably 1940s.

For a moment there I thought the second picture was your panama flying in the breezeStart the weekend chores. Taking Christmas lights down. Had to change to my VS crossover. The Panama was flapping in the breeze. Most annoying.
Working in the yard took a back seat when the kids wanted to go fly a kite. Turned into a really nice evening

Yup, still a great hat.Cavanagh lord's hat "Huggy Bear" plus a couple shots from a hike last Saturday just because they are neat.
Have yourself an unusual Saturday (but only in neat ways).

Super looking hat, John. I can almost feel that felt.Hey everyone!
Rain on and off since last night. Going out while it's temporarily dry.

Not wet enough for a raincoat at the moment, but this well loved old Army M-1943 field jacket I found thrifting should fare better than a leather if the skies open up again. There's no tag left in the jacket, but I'm guessing that it's an M-1943 field jacket because the hood has this:
And it goes with the hat!
Have a great day!
