A great hat to go with a great gun. I’ve always had an affinity for the P35.

I think it's a great color, and not one you see often! Wear it well!Here’s a moss green Penman (in retrospect, I wish I had gone with the ‘Indy brown’ ribbon- oh well, still a great hat...)

Raiders, by John Penman. Wonderful felt, about as close to my nicer vintage felt as I’ve found in a modern hat.

You and me both. I never should have sold my Inglis Hi Power, even to my brother... now it belongs to my nephew and I'll never see it again.

Penman Everyman with a new crease. Sharpened up the pinch and pressed a diamond bash into service.
That S&W is in great shape. Brazilian or 1917?

It’s a commercial 1917. Frame built for the WWI contract, but wasn’t completed until after the war ended, sometime around 1920. I have another US Army 1917, which has its barrel replaced at some point, which I plan to cut to “Indy length”

The crown photo from behind in particular make it look two feet tall. I guess I need to add one to my wishlist.

It was even taller when the hat sported a center dent.

I notice how relatively thin the felt is for rabbit felt. FEPSA? TONAK?

Aaccording to Indy lore (i.e. indygear.com) Herbert Johnson was using felt bodies from the now defunct Cury factory in Brazil.
