Thanks for sharing that technique!
I successfully resisted buying this one, but that may come in handy in the future.

Cool!Hi John, I found this on the interwebs:
"Andrew Gross Custom Hatter was a downtown men's hat maker and repairer, in business for decades.
The business dated back to at least 1926, when it was Gross and Emanuel, run by Andrew Gross and Joseph Emanuel at 1225 Broadway. 1 By 1941, the shop had moved to 515 - 16th Street (in the Rotunda Building?), and Emanuel sold his share of the business to Gross. 2 In 1950, the shop moved around the corner to 1551 San Pablo Ave. 3
Andrew Gross continued in that location until the 1970s, when he sold the business."
Thanks for that bit of history!

Lion Hats 20X Pure Beaver Fur Felt size 7 1/4. It leans more toward buckskin than silverbelly to my eye.
I have this hat listed on eBay, but feel free to PM me if you’re interested.

Might as well add mine in here.
I love crown shape, just need to do something with the brim. This was one of two I got. The other one had the sweat band disintegrate out of it after a year of hard use. Still need to get it replaced. Felt is still in great shape.

Llork's of New Haven. Just the box unfortunately, but another "brand" almost certainly made by Beaver Brand.

I have only had this hat for 11 years and today decided to shape it so I can start wearing it. Brim used to be rediculously flat and stiff as all hell. So put It into a cold shower for about 5 minutes and gave it a nice front dip. Looks very Hondo to me know. I just need to figure out a hat band for it.
