found this great box in an antique shop over the weekend-- didn't purchase, but I think the photo will suffice.

That's one of my favorite hat boxes. There's so much innuendo....

some more detail on the Lee Overbrook

I just love the ribbon twist and stitched binding on this. The ribbon's a clean inch wide. The creased crown is 4 1/2" and the brim is a nice wide 2 5/8"-- at least I think that's wide compared with any non-OR fedora I own.

Jeff, that Overbrook is simply stunning! I really love the wide brim binding with the 5 rows of stitching. The colors are FANTASTIC. It looks wonderful on you! :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap

Its been a while since my last ebay hat ad "purge", but I decided to go through again and try to find all the ads that havent been seen yet. I'm SURE there are going to be duplicates of some, but some I have never seen before.

Here are 3 shots of my newly acquired fedora (from Bond). I'm very happy with this fine hat, as I mentioned in the My Blue Heaven thread. Pardon my fixation, but Damn! I love this lid.

D-Man, what's the connection between Adam Hats and Lee?

 

[Dinerman]

Wrong thread.

Found this Lee Silver Label Commentator in a box of hats I purchased from our own D.W. Suratt, easily my new favorite hat. Since its dark outside and the lighting isn't great, I'll post one picture for now and take more tomorrow.
