It is, quite literally, a pain in the but.

Bumping this thread just because it’s cool.

I scrolled a few pages and i had few thoughts i’ll share:

I love this thread because it’s all pics, few words, no need to pontificate the weather, broken bones, your daily dawdles nor chat back thank you’s like you’re having a IM session.
Like Joe Friday said “Just the facts Ma’am”.

Next, i think the coolest liners, at least for American made hats, was the period of embroidered liners. Those were some classy times, craftsmanship and detail ruled. None better than Stetson’s Flagship and the Dobbs Rainbow in my opinion.
Scrolling back i remembered the excitement of hunting hats, finding illusives, watching newbies (like myself)progress from beaters to diamonds and share in other’s collections. Good times.

New hands came, some stayed, some old hands went and took with them so much knowledge and wisdom. What became of them a mystery.
I quickly realized so many i miss.
Just to name a very few: @Yahoody, @DOGMAN, the lovable irascible @Bob Roberts, @Dinerman, RIP Ed @desertdog and +1 @RJR?…. on and on. Heck i even miss myself being “in the spirit”.
Like the cycles of cicadas the Lounge soldiers on.

Lastly….@drmaxtejeda, Max my friend, you need to put the Stetson Ermine on here, et al.

Ps: forgive the septuagenarian moment i guess i violated Joe Friday.

Oh yeah…..here’s a not often seen lovely liner in my book.

Liner for the Resistol 1776. I like the liner but not the $10K price tag that comes with it.
