I bought a hat of the Cury mark, manufactured here in Brazil. This hat is made in leather of hare, and it's a very comfortable hat, and really very pretty, with a very good price.
I pay R$189 ($100 USD).
The overall style isn't my favorite, but I REALLY like the color of the felt. May not be a screen accurate hat, but if it's Indy enough for you, it's Indy enough for me
the good ol' Brazilian Cury fedora, made from rabbitfur. I had one like that many years ago. Michaelson must remember that surely. In our quest finding the origins of the HJ fedora's. Gosh, those were the days...
I don't have my Cury hat anymore. Gave it away to a friend after I bought a Federation Deluxe.
But now my Fed's almost dead! ( haha.. read: worn out) maybe it's time for another one.

Regards! Michaelson
yeah, that is true. such a long time ago and yeah, i think i was the first! and then i got stuck during my quest and stopped digging in to it more. and eventually concentrated on WW2 related stuff instead. Gosh, how long has it been?
