Awesome, hopefully I can track that down...

I think I saw that name on a catalog someone posted.

 

[clintfisher]

Thanks man!

50's is a safe assumption. That's an awesome score!

 

[clintfisher]

Great catch.

Hey all, I scored this Stetson "The Nevadan" today, super stoked, looks to be late 50's by the embroidered Last Drop liner. Does anyone know anything about "The Nevadan" ? All I could find googling was a nutria model at the Library of Congress.

The sweat stains on the ribbon tells me that the hat was worn plenty, especially on a warm day.

Does anybody know if Hats Plus bought out Miller's old Canadian Biltmore or Guerra inventory? They seem to have alot of both and does anyone know anything or have any opinions on the "Guerra GQ" fedora that Hats Plus has for Internet sale only, that's being shipped out of a Colorado warehouse??? Thanks for any info.

Agreed. No way it is in unworn condition, but still looks really nice for its age.

Can anybody give me specific opinions on why Panama Bob is selling this one so cheap? http://the-panama-hat-works-of-mont...amous-and-authentic-sombrero-de-paja-toquilla

His next closest model is $120 then $399+ after that.

He prices by weave count.He uses the same pictures to illustrate all shapes so you can't tell how fine the weave is from the pics.Several here have purchased his "cheap"hats and been very happy with them.
If you have a concern,email him.

I have two of these hats, one Tan and the other Natural color and I am very please with the hats and the service from Bob. Can't wait for warmer weather to wear them.

Ya'll convinced me. I've ordered one. Kinda shocked that the shipping was like 70% of the price of the hat, but I guess it'll be bulky to ship.

QUESTION: what happened to all of my old posts? They are no longer available on my FL profile. I can only access my recent ones.

I am going to the opera later this week and was wondering how hat etiquette pertains in this situation. Of course it will be off when seated, but what about when walking into the theater or in the lobby?
-Thanks!

Only reason to take your hat off in the lobby is if you are talking to someone, it is polite to take your hat off then. Lobbies, hallways, elevators, train stations, etc are all fair game to keep your hat on. Entering the office or someones home it comes off.
