I seriously doubt it[emoji31][emoji1]
I was a 42R back then, now I'm a 44R. Head size remains the same 58.

Just one size up over that period of time is damn admirable! Barry Bonds is the only guy I know who's head grew 5 sizes bigger over a few years usage of steroids.....7 1/4 to a size 8

Thanks! My career pretty much required me to stay in shape, so I have always watched what I ate and workout every day. At 53 I still do[emoji106]

I just bought this Dobbs Twenty. The seller told me the size was 20.
I asked for a photos of the label behind the leather sweatband and the seller told me it was a size 70! That’s right, 70!
Upon closer inspection/
A lot of effort, but I think it paid off.

I know who he is. I was just being sarcastic because the guy thought so much of himself.

You are really good at finding excellent hats at a great price, Bob. You could've been a compradore to the Noble House.

"By historic custom the compradore was a Chinese or Eurasian businessman who acted as the exclusive intermediary between the European trading house and the Chinese. All business went through his hands and a little of everything stuck there."
You might be on to something here Max.

It's like pulling teeth some times to get the details you need. Looks to be well worth the effort Brent!

Read Tai-Pan to get started."By historic custom the compradore was a Chinese or Eurasian businessman who acted as the exclusive intermediary between the European trading house and the Chinese. All business went through his hands and a little of everything stuck there."

I need to post, guys, and this one needed to be posted.
I propose a new thread titled, “WTF’ Hats!” First submission, from the January edition of the Wall Street Journal Weekend magazine...
REALLY?!?!! Must include Vaseline, in case it’s snug...

I’m all in on this thread, Charlie. Anxious to see where it goes.
Happy New Year and it’s good to see you around.

Charlie, how about the "SIGNATURE" TASYA VAN REE DESIGNER STETSON line? Even comes with a prepunched sweat just like an Outlet hat (your friends will never know) for when you want to go slumming.

+1 for me
I mentioned something similar a few months back when seeing these steampunk numbers. It also might help serve to document some Fouqet’s here on the lounge!
