Post New Hats Here!
Interestingly enough, Lefty, I happen to be a 7 1/8. If you need me to, I can take that Borso off your hands and put it to good use. I love Art's Montecristi, too.- GallatinHatMan

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=270405908386 I didn't bid on this but watched it with interest to see how high the bidding would get. It went cheaper than I had anticipated, actually. An interesting hat.- GallatinHatMan

Velour Hat by Biltmore
For those interested, I got this hat in yesterday's mail. It really is a great hat, but dirtier than I expected from the pictures online. After I do a bit of cleanup, I'll do some photos. I've never seen the velour finish before so it will take some getting used to, but this could end up being...- GallatinHatMan

Velour Hat by Biltmore
Well, I didn't "win" it, but whoever did failed to pay for it so the seller contacted me as the next highest bidder and I bought it for $60. There was something about the hat I found compelling, but I'm so new at this that I am always reluctant when the bidding gets over $50 because I'm still...- GallatinHatMan

Anyone else with a retro workspace?
Marvelous. My workspace needs restoration and I hope this fall to do so so I can show it off. We live downtown so I can walk to the various courts and I work from what would have been the sole bedroom, off of the main parlor, as opposed to the "ladies'" parlor, in an Italianate farmhouse built...- GallatinHatMan

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
I am very happy. It completes my homberg contingent, having a camel colored Stetson Royal Deluxe, a gray Stetson Ivy League and now this black Cavanaugh. So I now have a homberg for every suit which is what I wanted. As a fedora it was ugly but back to its intended glory, it really is great. I'm...- GallatinHatMan

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=250435565675 I got this in one of Scot's auctions. He had fedorized, if that's a word, but I wanted it because it was a good Cavanagh black Homburg, for which I have been looking. It came in the mail today and I...- GallatinHatMan

I got this today and am thrilled. From the Stetson thread it looks as though this might be from the 30s. Can anyone help me with a date? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=270394493707- GallatinHatMan

Post New Hats Here!
On a recent trip to see my son in college in Indiana, I stopped by an antique mall just outside of Columbus and while there I came upon an antique top hat manufactured E.F. Miller of Altoona, Pennsylvania. This is the way the hat came, in the original leather box, not in great shape but still...- GallatinHatMan

Thanks. I love it. I bought it on EBay for $23. Best buy I've made in a long time. It isn't perfect, but it molds well and it fits me like a glove.- GallatinHatMan

A Stupid Stetson Question
I did a quick search, but couldn't find my answer so I thought I'd ask it outright. Though I have worn hats for a long time, I am really a novice when it comes to hat expertise. I have in recent months purchased several hats, including a number of Stetsons. I cannot figure out, for lack of a...- GallatinHatMan

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Today, I wore my Borsalino Alessandra which is a camel color. Eventhough it was 90 degrees, this felt is so light that it is as cool as any of my straws.- GallatinHatMan
