A gray Vagabond, from buler. It looks very brown in some pics, but it's really gray. I didn't have a gray one.

Yes. That is a very sharp hat. I like it better than some Playboys I've seen. How is the felt?

Looks very light, and not unlike a Dobbs Cross Country I have.

Cavanagh Homburg. Again, from Adrián. Early 50's, he says. It has the Park Avenue address.
Since I can't have the Cav Scott bought from Moon (he said he wouldn't sell it even if hell freezes over), I figure this is close enough.

Man, how come I've missed this one before? That is a stellar hat, Max. The homburg nation is proud of you.

Just keep an eye on @Miamibruno on ebay, Stefan.
He has excellent stuff, and posts new ones almost every Sunday evening. IMHO, he's the best in eBay.

Yes. The felts are practically the same, Jim.

I would love a Dobbs Cross Country or Knox Vagabound, either one before a vintage Playboy, but would not say no to the Playboy, either.

Just bought this Borsalino Mirtillo. My size, too. Etsy.
Luckily, the brim is a little too narrow for Stefan's taste, or he would've scooped it up. The man is insatiable!
The same seller has other Borsalinos at a fair price. I talked him into free shipping from Sweden to Texas.

Sí, a mí también. El que compraste para tu hija estaba demasiado chico para mí, pero encontré este.

I know of Adrian's hats, Max. Most of the times his hats are in your size though.

Can't beat mirtillo as a colour. Nice one, Max.

Then over this past weekend I ran accross this awesome rare hat, with felt like butter!!
The wonderfiul red and white blocking tag and orange re-order tags present! It is late 40's! HOWEVER.....it is a size 7.....so trade bait!
Oh, well, at least I have had the opportunity to own, hold and feel one!
The ad is from 1946...... Do YOU look your best!?!?
