Full Hat Collection Photographs Thread

Great hat collections and displays guys. I should show my wife all Dinerman's hats, then she will realize I don't have that many.

That's why I have my hats sent to my work address, so she doesn't recognize them and loses count.

Guilty as charged. Every now and then she'll say "That's a nice hat, when/where did you get that one?".

Thank goodness for PayPal and "private" accounts. Fewer hat trails!!

I think I finally have enough hats to consider them a collection. Here's mine (so far)...

TOP ROW (left to right):
Saks Fifth Ave. - Dobbs 15/20 clone
Cavanagh - model unknown, late '30s
Falcon Park Hattery - The Cadence

BOTTOM ROW (left to right):
Cavanagh - Milan
Stetson - model unknown, relatively modern
Kevin McAndrew
Robley - private label for a former local Atlanta hat store
Dobbs - model unknown

I'm a wide ribbon fan myself...excellent collection!

A trick that I learned from my wife. You buy the hat and put it away for a short time. When she asks you about, when / where, you can replay. Oh, I've had this for a long time. You don't remember it?

I gotta say that all the latest images are awesome! And rabbit, not sure you're my size, but if you are and ever want to get rid of that charcoal Knox Twenty, let me know.

Classic. Love it!

Wish I could do that... It might save me...

Thanks, CircuitRider. Will end up getting some thin ribbons eventually. It's a modest collection compared to some of the more native residents here. I'm taking my time, though.

Well, the Know Twenty in charcoal is a 7 1/8. I'm a 57.4cm egg oval head; my vintage hats are 7 1/8 and 7 1/4. Some Homburgs are a small 7 3/8.

I'm a 7, but do have a 7 1/8 that fits decent. My heads shape tho is awfully LO...

Cav Patrol

This is not my entire collection, but it is my entire collection of felted edge hats. Most of these dozen are Cavanagh Edges (Mode, Guild, etc) plus one Stetson Selve-Edge (the silverbelly). I arranged them on the dining room table, 'on patrol'

Front row - Lt Olive Stetson 3X Beaver (VS refurb), Tan Stetson Fifteen 3X Beaver, Cobalta Borsalino Allessandria.
2nd Row - Sea-foam green Stetson 3X Beaver, medium brown Dobbs w/rust ribbon (Falcon Pk refurb), grey Dobbs 20 w/burgundy ribbon.
3rd Row - Dk Olive Borsalino Allessandria (Optimo refurb), Cinnamon Stetson Sovereign, Silverbelly Stetson selve-edge
4th Row - Dk Brwn Bond Fifteen, Dk Brwn Dobbs Forty, Lavender Disney Oxford Fifteen w/navy ribbon.

Similar pic but without flash. I think the only difference is the hats in the middle 1st & 2nd row switched places for this one.

Closer look at the 3 greens, Dk Olive on the left to Lt Olive on the right. You can see the browns fairly well also.

Closer look at the two dark browns.
