I wish it were in my size range, but that's how it goes sometimes. Felt is a tan/olive color with a purpleish ribbon (probably a replacement)

Very nice Justin ...
yeah that ribbon is most likely replaced ... I'd say definitely actually
but it has what Stetson called the "Wafer Edge" which neither of my Flagships have.... very cool feature that I believe was added to the model in the late 40s or possibly 1950 ... I could be wrong
Nice piece ... shim it and wear that sumbich

I'll have to research up the Water Edge, sounds interesting. I really like the treatment it adds to the brim. I wish it had the origin ribbon, I'll give it some "shim" and see how I like it. Tried giving it to the old man, and well, that's another story haha. His some is more 7 3/4 territory... learned something new. If it does "shim" well, I'll have to send it out to be properly dressed up with a ribbon again. This TAR makes it look a tad ridiculous

Greetings All:
Thank you Justin those are very kind words.
“Learnt it all from You!”. You all are to blame! Ha. I spent a long apprenticeship snipering the bay, sucking all the knowledge out of all your brains, studying old threads, etc etc,waiting till the last 5 secs to pull, then looking here to see who got my hat!. I’ve enjoyed the banter, despised the arguments, hated the politics. I’ve done ok so far but i’d be a fool to think i knew “S__t from Shinola” compared to you, Justin,and many many others. I’m just glad to have a place to play!! Thank you to all of you.
Be well. Bowen
