Ouch...things have gone up in the last 12 months. The 100% beaver in granite that I bought last year at this time (see a few posts up) was about $575.

getoutofthelibrary

This one?

Had a school function tonight.

Just needed a reason to get on a train afterwards.

Picked this up Saturday (ordered at Christmas...worth every second of the wait): http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g76/gruden/Mobile%20Uploads/image.jpg Granite in 100% beaver (CS Train). Beautiful job by the guys at PB....they even dug up a red liner for me: http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g76/gr...

Ordered my fifth PB today. 100% beaver dress felt in Granite with a relaxed Raiders pinch. Black ribbon. Pics in a few months. I have a brown Indy, a Steel Grey Indy, a black Indy, and a bone Indy. Love that hat shop! Checked in yesterday while in Ft. Worth. Hat should be ready in about a week. Loo...

Are we forgetting that Steve Delk got confirmation that in fact Indy wears a grey travel hat. The steel grey looks nice but I would have went with charcoal as it is closer to the original color grey. I would never argue with you John, seriously... I absolutely respect your knowledge...but, I went w...

It looks like the bags are back in stock. http://www.military1st.co.uk/30303b-german-mountain-rucksack-mfh-olive.html Ordered one of these yesterday...have a kid in one of my classes that works with leather (as do I a little) and he's already finished the label...so, give me a week or so and I shou...

Many thanks

Oak will know. John?

I ordered this custom Raiders from Peters Brothers a couple of years ago in steel grey...figured it was close enough for a custom I could get locally.

Is Peter Bros an Indy hat maker? That name seems familiar; do they make Indy style hats that many on here have purchased and posted photos here? I am in Houston, north Houston btw. Check out thread titled "Height of the Fedora"........the three hats I'm wearing in the pictures are all Pet...

Good to hear guys! I'll breathe easy!

High-crowned PB....

getoutofthelibrary

Thank you, gentlemen. Means a lot coming from you, Oak. Hope to have one of your's on my head some day.

getoutofthelibrary

My favorite crease.....again, looks really tall in a mirror.... But I like it in pictures....

I always think my fedora looks too tall when looking in a mirror......but not in pictures....

Idol Grab and CS Train.

getoutofthelibrary

Sad to hear. Joe always found time to talk hats or cars when I was in the shop. Those of you who had a tour of the building with Joe know what a special treat that was. He took care of his customers as if they were family. I'll stand a little taller in my PB's from now on. Thanks, Joe!

getoutofthelibrary

Idol grab.

4 with a Raiders crease.....1 each in brown, black, gray, and bone....all PB's.

getoutofthelibrary

Spent some time at PB on Wednesday....the youngest and I just window shopped, watched Javier pounce a hat (pretty smelly), and looked through the ribbon drawer in the back.

getoutofthelibrary

LC off the rack 44 pre-distressed hide. Ordered on Sunday, arrived (Texas) on Wednesday. Fits great, looks great. Couldn't be happier.

I have a vintage Stetson that I have posted before which looks very similar to yours in terms of felt colour and bash.

I have all mine done with a Raiders crease.

The young Hispanic is Javier...he does good work.

It actually cooled off enough to wear felt 3 days this week in the Fort Worth area. Gray on Tuesday, Raiders on Thursday, Black on Friday.

Picked up my gray Raiders from PB today.....Not quite the Clipper, but close enough for me. http://i869.photobucket.com/albums/ab252/calvin28/gra001.jpg http://i869.photobucket.com/albums/ab252/calvin28/gra003.jpg http://i869.photobucket.com/albums/ab252/calvin28/gra005.jpg My wife's new favorite.

I am not particulary fond of black hats, for the most part, but this one could change my mind in a heartbeat! That is one of the most increadible looking hats I have ever seen!

Mitch and Michaelson,

Thanks. PB is my favorite place to go in Fort Worth. I have another on the way in gray.....and a bone western to drop off. They are amazing.

Picked up my black Raiders from PB on Wednesday.....western conversion.

While we made those hats for that film, the looks of the hat is all Bernie. He was very detailed on what he wanted, as we wanted Raider looking fedoras, creases and all, but it was a lost cause. :lol: He wanted LC hats, so we simply pulled a fast one and sent him straight blocked hats instead of ta...

Congrats on getting "THE" hat! Can't argue with that liner!!

There are at least 3 websites that are auction venues for guns. Find them and do a search for a S&W 1917....you will get an idea of what others are asking.

Todd's has great service. Ordered and had the Raiders Holster in less than a week. Really like the look of the holster, but it was a little light for what I wanted. Great deal for the price, however. Went to the local saddle shop and picked up some scraps (heavier). Have everything done but the dark...

The wife and kids got me a PB Indy gift certificate for Christmas. Went in on the first Monday in January for fitting. Twelve week turnaround....can't wait. I have window shopped at PB for years...I'm 25 minutes from Fort Worth. Went with the Raiders in 50/50. Pics when I get it!
