Dang, just saw my photos. Not sure why they came out so bright. The hat is pure black but show like it has lint all over. ??? Oh, well maybe I need a new phone the camera on this one really sucks.

Off for a little shopping now.
Have a good one,
Michael
Thanks WK. I got this one at a thrift, but I think you can still buy them for under $10 at Tractor Supply and other stores of that nature.Now there's a hat we all need in our rotation.....sun visor to boot. Very cool Michael
I am doing outside chores and am now wearing a soaking wet t-shirt. Totally yukky weather. Since I needed to move mulch under some trees and evergreens I am wearing a felt hat to protect my head from limbs. 
Straw only in this weather.
The humidity is equal to the temps this morning.
A vintage Air Command, Penny's Marathon in a glorious blue felt was my hat choice. This is a terrific value in a hat in it's day. Excellent appointments, felt and quality. The felt is gloriously malleable. A center dent, a diamond - no effort just put them in. The taller crown and big brim (2 7/8") give the hat some character and versatility.
A pleated liner is a classy appointment. The leather sweat is excellent quality. The binding edge has more ribbon on the top than the bottom - cool. The workmanship is excellent. The stitches while not as fine or close as a couple of my other "like" hats are just well done.
It will sit on a block and have the leather sweat conditioned later today.
No more felt today.
Best, Eric -
All that local exposure, you'll have to run from the ladies now! Great representation for us all!Clearwater Hats derby made an appearance on the afternoon news today—

Great Western style dress hat that always looks good in the best steakhouse in town!
That's one very nice looking MonteCristi, Jack. Stay cool out there. Frightening heatwave hitting parts of the USA this week.
I like it better than a pug also, & I like the fact that it's a center crease instead of a tear drop or diamond.
Thanks BB. Although probably not my style, I have seen some pattern pugs that I like & especially some made from old neckties. Bob @ BSHW does some of that. Pokadots don't do anything for me & never had any interest in plain black or chocolate.
Any possibility the station might have a video up?
Two super looking hats, Stefan. Can't wait to hear about the Dobbs. I won't mention the tie, I don't want to keep side tracking the hat thread [emoji6]
