Hmmm. I think I need to specify all boxes are trampled on!!! I could not have done better with the crease job you put in. Great job!! It actually looks to have seen some action, while on your head. That hat should shed water like a duck's back too. Special stuff done to that hat.
On the UPS shipping, I have been asked by other customers from Canada to use it. It is so much faster(or so they tell me). It is the only time that I use UPS. USPS can take literally weeks to arrive. I have no clue as to why. Fedora

Sam, yours is winging its way(the right color this time) as we speak. Now, if you decide to get another one, or a gray one, we need to do some horse trading. I love those Platypus brand wool boot socks you sent me a couple of years ago. I have bought several different brands of boot sock from ebay but none compare with what you sent me. That would be alot of socks to swap out, dollar value per dollar value, but I wouldn't have to buy any more until I check out. Fedoraim not sure that seeing all these cool ABs is doing anything for my sanity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sam, I've 'known' you for many years now, and I'm very sorry to tell you that the arrival of your new AB will do NOTHING to help correct this particular problem. It will help curb the twitches, but it won't 'cure'.golpeo_rapidamente wrote:im not sure that seeing all these cool ABs is doing anything for my sanity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HIGH regards, old friend.

I could use a good thing right about now. And Lord knows, I've waited. (Almost 26 weeks) This is getting painful! I've had perfect weather to break in an AB with my Wested for weeks now, but the hat continues to be elusive. When I get it I probably won't be able to sleep until I've worn it someplace... and for fear that it's just a dream.

Here's the first picture of my AB and me
It's prebashed "Raven Bar Style" directly from Steve.
But I may give it sometime a more detailed rebash.
However it's a wonderful hat! Thank you Steve!

My new AB dlx - generic Raiders' bash without turn.
The hat is a true work of art, it is everything I expected from an AB dlx - and more!
I originally got the hat in october last year, but due to me taking my measurements wrong it was too big for me. Being the stand-up guy he is Marc offered to fix that - and now the hat fits just perfectly.
Marc delivered the hat to me personally, he had a business appointment not far from where I live - It was really nice to finally get to meet him after the many e-mails and phonecalls.
Having spended the evening talking Indy and hats, drinking coffee, cracking whips, etc. I can only say that my impression of Marc from the e-mails and phonecalls was not wrong - he truly is a nice guy. I had a great time - which I hope to repeat soon.
Thank you for a great evening Marc - and thank you for making my perfect Indy fedora.
Regards.

i'm referring to the "man in the hat" scene where indy disposes of that cutthroat baranca (sp?) at the beginning of raiders. its a different hat than the rest of the movie (this hat is only prevalent outside of the chachapoyan temple). though, i believe it makes an appearance when indy is dragging himself up from the bottomless pit but then the rest of the movie is the good ol' hero hat with the asymmetrical wings. its my opinion that this hat was ruined while jumping in the river but was then given to the life magazine guy on the clipper to wear.....just conspiracy theories on my part though....i'm willing to argue my case from under the plymouth!
this is the hat:
