    The Resistol Roundup

    Resistol Outlook This is the hat in my avatar -- a Resistol Outlook, with a 2-inch brim, in spruce. It arrived with initials engraved on the sweatband, but still open-crowned and apparently unworn, in its box (instructions included). I tend to prefer wider brims, but I keep coming...

    That's just an excellent surprise! I love it when nice things just happen, like that. And that's a good-looking hat.

    Very interesting. Thanks!

    Stetson Flagship

    That's a beauty! It shows some similarities to my own gray Flagship, with black ribbon, that may help me date my hat. Is that an unreeded sweatband? That's what I found on my hat.

    Gallatin, No worries. I've had more than my share of luck recently. I'm happy that Strat is going to somebody who will appreciate it.

    A ha! So you were the miscreant who sniped my snipe! Oh well ... Congratulations! I look forward to seeing shots of the hat once you've taken possession.

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    I get the occasional "Indy" and "Dick Tracy" comments, but the dumbest I've heard was a few weeks ago when I was walking across a strip mall parking lot and some time-warp-plagued hippie leaned out of a passing mini-van to sing "Staying Alive" at the top of his voice. In his mind, apparently...

    Johnnyphi Hat Club

    Like you, I haven't been able to find any other information on Royalist hats. The black sweatband and cellophane covering for the liner looks late '50s to '60s to me, but the dimensions definitely suggest an earlier hat. It's something that will keep me curious and spur me to research, which is...

    Johnnyphi Hat Club

    Royalist Supreme I picked this one up from Johnnyphi's Website at the end of September. It's an example of the mystery brand our benefactor discovered: Royalist. It has a 2 5/8" brim, a 5 1/4" crown, and a few moth nibbles along the edge binding (revealed in the listing and not affecting the...

    Ah! You got that! I wanted the box to go with my new Flagship, but I've been pushing the limits of the budget. Great deal!

    I keep coming back to that. I love the ribbon.

    I've lucked out a couple of times on throw-the-dice bids that worked out in my favor. I'm just about due to win a Whippet and receive a propeller beanie in the mail.

    Stetson Flagship I mentioned in the Ebay Hats thread that I lucked out and picked up a Stetson Flagship for a bargain price. Bidding fever was dampened a bit by confusion caused by two sets of measurements that contradicted each other. Well, I took a chance, gambled that the larger set (22"...

    I've learned to look for those little errors. That's how bargains are found. I'll let everybody know whether or not I made as good a deal as I hope.
