BRAVO! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
Good eye and a real find! I'm certain that keeping your spouse happy was the 1st thought that crossed your mind when you spotted that hat. :rolleyes: ;) :)
I'm taking johnnyphi at his word regarding the mothing and trust that area is the only one. (I suppose some clarification would be a good idea.) I think the lighter areas can be dealt with.
You may as well take a look at Orvis while you're at it.

It pays to look at the sad little photos.
Thanks, Lefty, Rusty, CJ...if the seller hadn't posted a sideways picture of the Clear Beaver Quality stamping, I'd have passed. The seller didn't seem to think much of it. [huh] :)
I like patriotic music from other nations as well.

Here is an abbreviated history of one of the most stirring national anthems ever composed, the Marseillaise.

From Bye, Bye Birdie
Gray skies are gonna clear up,
Put on a happy face;
Brush off the clouds and cheer up,
Put on a happy face.
Take off the gloomy mask of tragedy,
It's not your style;
You'll look so good that you'll be glad
Ya' decide to smile!
Pick out a pleasant outlook,
Stick...
I'll try to do some side-by-side photos of the two when I receive the OR and get it cleaned-up.
I also need to do some photos for the bowler thread. I have a Stetson Standard Quality that was sold by Young's New York, a Stetson Made of Real Nutria Fur that was sold at the 1224 Chestnut St...
Great Coat!
OK, That does it! Dinerman, what does that shop have for a BIG Man? Anything around a 50 Reg. or XXL?
You should consider a career as a men's clothes finder! Seriously, you have a great eye and know what is vintage vs repro trash. It could be a part-time obsession...er..job...
I have a Clear Beaver 5X Stetson with a 3" brim, 5" crown (to the crease), and 2 1/4" reeded sweatband. There is a Hat Industry Code Authority tag under the sweat with the number sequence 484367. The tags affixed to the body below the sewn-in liner are 1) number sequence 63566900and Size 7 1/2...
Not that there's anything wrong with costumes but
GREAT LOOK, Manny! The best thing about that picture is that you are totally natural. I like to see a man who looks like he dresses well every day as opposed to someone who looks like a kid in a costume. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
NIIICE !
THAT is a very nice hat! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap Can you tell us the composition of the body and some details regarding brim width and crown height?
I accessed the website but, unfortunately, cannot read very much of the language. There ARE some very attractive models...
A substantial mug.
I've been test driving one of mine for a couple of days. The logo on both sides is a nice feature. This is a nice substantial mug and just the right size. :)
He's back.
I spoke with JP just a few minutes ago. He called me this morning. He's been off the radar for a few weeks for personal reasons but says he's back and working exclusively on hats. I'm sending good thoughts his way.
