A beautiful Friday under my Shudde Bros. 3X.

The beard's comin' on nicely. Pairs well with a manly hat such as that.

That is a great looking hat! Suits you.

Thanks. I'm surprised how much I like it. It's a nice felt.

Ok but I'll still buy you a drink if you're out this way. I've been looking for an excuse to go to the Tonga Room.

 

[VoodooSan]

Almost unrecognizable as the same hat, I agree this is a much better look.

Yep, changed its look, and its character, completely. This is a VAST improvement.

 

[jlee562]

I’ve never seen a 3 ribbon hat marked as a Open Road on the hat

I'm convinced it must have existed. I have a post about it in the OR thread somewhere. The two different ads from two different shops in two different years really sinks the probability of it being a retailer listing/printer error.

Looks like they might have good rum. I'm in.

I remember seeing that one. I'd like to get hold of one of those.

But have you seen one? And I’m not talking Canadian, Japan or Australian.

That natural felt paired with a silver/gray ribbon is an eye catcher!

Classic!!! Beautious lid, David, judiciously enhanced in a mandala-like setting. Super!!

Great looking Resistol Ten, David.

I became somewhat claustrophobic though looking at the photo. Looks like the scene from Star Wars where the walls start closing in.

Hope you got out in time

Thanks, fellas—made it out, Steve! I was on the way to the trash cans in my building.

Good Saturday, all. Taking off from Frun’s last lid, Excellent Quality Stetson Strat. This was a fortunate find during Stetson’s short-lived production run of about 10 years ago.

Three beauties, Jim. I'm drawn to the Strat, but that background never fails for me

I’ll stick to this all original Collins and Fairbanks—and a chew—for my statement.
Some smoke it, some soak it.

And few pics heralding what I’ve been up to this week.
Been very busy buying these 40s through 80s all carbon steel folding knives and building this humble display case. $120 in materials and thankfully didn’t have to buy the oak and fancy fabric, as I already had it on hand.

Knives, though a long and usable interest of mine, aren’t near as fun or profitable as good old felt hats.

View attachment 585896 Wellalrightythen! An academic background in International Relations could be a lot of things, depending upon who was teaching or interpreting I suppose.

I was overwhelmingly compelled to respond by wearing a “release the hostages” scarf…

As Prime Minister Golda Mier said, when asked in an interview “when do you think there will be peace in the Middle East?”
“When the Arabs learn to love their children more than they hate us.”

I wish it was over and done with!!!
VS Oxblood seemed appropriate.
