We voted yesterday and I took the ballots to the county clerk's office this morning and dropped them in the ballot box. I figured the black cherry Gannon was keen on getting some air today so I took it along for the ride.

Red leaf fall days here, too @alanfgag

I really like that Doug. That may be another of yours that I flagrantly clone.

Feel free, but give all credit to Rodolfo aka @Chamuco and Michael Gannon for the creative genius on this one. I had Michael make me a clone of his black cherry Gannon and he/we decided to call it the Rodolfo after that.

This is the more reddish black cherry felt that was being made by Winchester for awhile. I think right now they have a blacker version out... from which I would also like a hat made!

Man is that ever a sharp looking lid. I may have to consider these Gannons at some point! Everything about it is perfect and you wear it real well.

I've always wanted to somewhat replicate this photo of my great(x4?) Grandfather, and now I can cross it off my list.

1900s Chamois for the hat. the rest is a mix of modern and vintage. I think I did okay

This is so cool Justin. You can see the family resemblance. His hat looks a little more "lived in".

I really like that Dennis Brooks, is that a custom maker still around? Great 50s hat for voting, it just kind of suits the day.

Dennis was a lounger who had started a company he called fine fur hats but I don’t think it got anywhere. He apprenticed with Gary White in buffalo. Haven’t heard from him in a very long time. It is indeed a very fine felt!
