R.M. Williams Campdraft today.
The glasses I'm wearing are American Optical Ful-vue from the early 1940s.
They belonged to the husband of my mother's God mother, Capt. Clay Evans, Master of the Block Island ferry M/V Elizabeth Ann, a former WWI sub-chaser. The model of the ferry is being held by his daughter Elizabeth Ann Evans, who was named after the ferry.

That is one good looking hat!! I would love to find one like it.

Thank you! It originally came with a cattleman but I changed it up with an okayish bash!

Pre-War Stetson No. 1 Quality:

This is the hat that I’ve asked Michael Gannon to duplicate with my second 220g nutria in natural. Should arrive in July, but worth the wait. I love this hat, and I like the idea of having a modern version that I won’t have to pamper or worry about.

I really like the lighter coloured ribbon/brim binding.

 

[deadlyhandsome]

I really like the lighter coloured ribbon/brim binding.

Thanks. It’s a favorite, but I’m reluctant to wear it much as it’s so old and irreplaceable. High hopes for the Gannon!

I am hoping the ribbon that you are sending up to me will have a lighter colour that will work for the Smithbilt. I see a dark brown with light to mid tone ribbon work. I am liking that type of contrast these days.

 

[Michael A]

Really love this one, Michael!

Thanks GF.

Awesome hat!! Whole outfit is stylin!

Thanks ET. i just dug out the old Bert Paley coat this morning for the first time of the winter.

Thanks,
Michael

Sweet hat, Max! Clean, pristine, and made with Vicuna. Ohh, Baby!

Thanks, Reggie! It is an alanfgag-caliber hat. It used to be his, I think I remember.

 

[deadlyhandsome]

Thanks, Reggie! It is an alanfgag-caliber hat. It used to be his, I think I remember.

I for one will never forget. It was in its matched case/suit case on a porch. It was photographed open crown and there were angels singing in the background.

Some fantastic Borsalinos again, Stefan. I just love that Barbisio Cowboy. More than a touch of Zoro about it in my eyes.

Great photos of folks on ice. Reminds me of the clips from the 100+ year old film of Volendam you sent me the link to.

In these times of Covid, the small pleasures in life seem to mean so much more.

Thanks, Steve. People enjoyed it tremendously, especially now. Missed out on going skating myself; thought the ice would be in too poor condition, but it seems there were stretches that were decent enough. Damn.
