A few black ones

I've got a few black ones - not all fedoras - but I'll throw them up...

This is my sawn-off rabbi hat. It's really nice beaver and has become one of my faves.

Something a little more western.

Never quite warmed to the leather hats.

This is my daughter's little Stylemaster - a great example of why I can't wear vintage!

And now for something completely different...

I have three black fedoras. One is an Akubra Bogart that I don't have a pic of, but I also have two older stingy brims.

A Champ, no noggin shots of this one. It was advertised as a 7 1/2 but was a 7 1/8 instead:

The Chamois in the older black hat thread is gone. This one is now my one and only, and I'm still not sure that I'm a fan of the black hat.

possibly from the teens, though the ribbon is newer

Argh!! There he goes again, flashing that black beauty at me...

This is such a nice hat...I was devastated when I found it at the Bay, only to learn that it wasn't my size...

But then, I think it found a good home!

It is definately one of my favorite hats and one of my best purchases, this year.

Missed that one, but I was aiming for something all-inclusive, anyway. Not vintage-centric.


Torpedo, that Whippet is to die for! Wow.

That top-hat is fabulous! Got any pics of you wearing it?

The hat is a vintage 1880's silk topper [1 of four I own], so I do not wear it often, but I'll see about the picture.

Here's the old topper.http://www.xoopit.com/s/20um7cjq58enetvo0rw1
