Two nice hats for you, H. I always like to see your Penman.

I had to pick up our daughter at South Station in Boston last night and wore my Silvermist ArtLite from Mr. Fawcett.

Great hat. I'm sure, once I will order a beaver hat from Mr Fawcett.

The good thing, Mr. Fawcett will make the ribbon (and other works) of my new panamahat that I order from Robert Weber.

It has rained all day. So I took my brown Borsalino to go outside.

Great lid, Blackthorn. I think SOG is right, it does go well with the outfit and the beard. It brings to mind a younger version of Alan Quatermain from The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Now, how is your skill with a Holland and Holland double barreled .500 nitro express rifle? :D

Thanks SOG and N11Pilot!

Now I'm going to have to watch that movie again, Pilot. And I WISH I had a .500 Nitro! Not that I'd punish myself by shooting it...

Hi SOG,

I'll make some better pictures, but yes, my Borsalino lookes like that. I also own a traveller from Borsalino, and it looks like that Borsalino. Fore sure, it is a Borsalino and expensive as well. I live in Europe; most of the people don't wear a fedora like in the States. But as I'm getting older, I more and more like the fedoras from the States.

Wow! That really stood up to the rain. It looks like it has just been blocked. Borsalino has got to be a quality product.
