actually a vintage stock photo I found in one of my many reference books... but I think it's pretty cool. It would be interesting to hear what in this scene is recognizable to either Marc or Steve....
neat, huh?!?

Cool photo! I recognize the heated sandbag apparatus used for flanging the brim, as well as some other odds and ends.

Nice picture indeed. However even this guy is using more machines than we are
My hat shop will be fully renovated within the next weeks and I'll post some pictures if you care.
Regards,

Drat! I thought someone had finally set up the streaming FedoraCam so we can watch Steve 24/7.
Maybe Marc is game. Marc?

I do care... that's the awesome thing about these hats you and Steve are providing here.... they're not some machine produced things... they're hand crafted pieces of love!!! I wanna see the birthing room!!!
