How to get photo of deleted Indy scene?
Any loungers know if it is possible to get a photo or clip of a deleted Indiana Jones IV scene? They had a beautiful overview of a church in West Haven, CT (NOT the New Haven church). Unfortunately, that scene was cut from the movie. I thought it might show up in the extra shots when the...- ledsled

Folding a Christy
I bought a Christy folding fedora a while back (the kind that fit in a tube). I stored it unfolded and placed the open hat on top of the tube. I was surprised at how well it held it's shape. Now I need the storage space, so want to fold it up inside the tube. Do you think I can find the... -
FS: Outback safari 60cm
This hat is from the Broken Hill Collection of the Outback Trading Company. I think it is connected to Akubra, but I might be wrong about that detail. The felt is hard like an Akubra. I like it, but it's the same story as the other safari type of hat I posted: the top of my head doesn't fit...- ledsled

FS: Quaker Marine Safari fur felt M/L
I got this hat new from Quaker Marine (on ebay) a few months ago, tried it on and decided the safari bash did not fit the top of my head right. It's a medium/large and they advertise it fitting a range of 7 to 7 3/8. As far as I can figure, I am 7 3/8. I paid $39.95 plus $7.95 shipping. The...- ledsled

My Cavanaugh
Unlike some of the fancier fedoras I have, I actually wear this one on a regular basis. While I don't wish any harm to come to it, I won't have to take out a second loan trying to purchase another one. Come to think of it, while I have seen the namebrand Cavanaugh, I have never seen another... -

Light blue/gray Stratoliner
Here's some pictures of a Stratoliner I got from "thefedorastore". I hope you will be able to see the blue influence in the gray color. It makes for an interesting color, and I think it works well with this Stratoliner! (Sorry I haven't graduated to having the pictures appear in this... -
Sports jacket, coat, or blazer? Etc. Help define!
I've been on this earth long enough to have coats, jackets, and blazers. Is there any link to a site that defines these things? Ditto with the materials they are made of and their construction. I am doing some work in more of an office/business type of environment than what I have done in... -
"Men in Uniform" exhibit at New Haven, CT Historic Society
I'm not sure where to place this blurb, but I wanted to let Loungers know about an upcoming exhibit at the New Haven Historic Society. The reason I am placing this under the "hats" section is that the poster announcing the exhibit shows a portrait of a colonial times officer with no hat, and it...- ledsled

BEWARE: ebay's devious solicitation
Yesterday, ebay's CEO sent a message to ebay members expressing her concern over a two-tiered internet, with a handful of telecommunication companies charging for what is now free. I thought this was a great move on her part: to stand up and share her concerns with the ebay members. The email...- ledsled

New section for original literature scans?
I am not sure if I should contact the moderators directly, or post the suggestion here..... and perhaps this topic has been discussed before. Seeing some of the nice literature (advertising) posted in the Open Road thread, it made me wonder if there's a place here in the Fedora Lounge where... -

The Social Meanings of Hats
Here's a link to an interesting article by Diana Crane. It talks about the social meanings of hats at different periods in time. For example, hat a man wears out in public would represent the status of his family, where the woman's hat was more individual, and allowed for individual style...
