My New Penman Hat
Just Got it today. He does beautiful work. I gotta tell you finish to the rabbit fur is unbelievable! I compared it to my AB and I have to be honest with you, I like the finish of the fur much better on the Penaman. Also the hat box is a treasure in its own right. I'm going to his site now and order a gray travel hat. This hat was well worth the wait!!!!

That is a lovely looking lid, sir!
A fella always seems to get nothing but top-notch stuff from Mr. Penman!

Re: My New Penman Hat
Which version is that, Gailen?
It looks like a keeper and daily wear hat. Suit you to a tee!

He does look rather upset. Remind me not to mess with you. 
Maybe get someon to tak a shot of you at a little distance so we can see what it really looks like on you.

Re: My New Penman Hat
I've seen that look before when I've taken photos of myself as well. 
The face you see is one wondering if the camera had actually gone off.

Yes, it's classic around here. As well as the run to the bathroom to get a pic of myself o show everyone.
they crack me up. The other sho that cracks me up is showing the cardboard shipping box. again, very funny. I remember when I first starting shipping my hats in my hat boxes waiting for someon to post a pic of th hat box and for th longst got people showing the shipping box but not the hat box. -

That's awesome. I'm going to pull the trigger on a Penman soon. How did you manage to get it so perfectly bashed and "lived in"? Since it's a brand new hat, I mean. It just looks perfect on you. Like it's been on your head always.

Yeah, it's hard to be happy while taking a picture of yourself. I steamed the hat within 20 minutes of opening and got it the way I wanted.
