No big thing. Just saying.

It's spelled Penman, but it's pronounced, "Throat-wobbler Mangrove!"

(Anyone get that reference?)

If not, I'll write what I was originally going to write:

It's spelled Penman, but it's pronounced, "Brilliant Hatmaker"

Its really the bendable oakster or Johnny ballgame, but we'll save that for another adventure.

Took my father-in-law to the train station this morning... he remarked about how he'd been getting appreciative looks from the ladies while out and about in his Penman.

Photos of the entire outfit are coming soon. Just waiting for some boots and a few new straps (I sold my other straps when I saw Wade Egan's work)

Waaaahoooo...I got a call today from Mr. Penman saying that my Raiders Rabbit is ready to be shipped.

Can! Not! Wait!

Finally a replacement for my approx. 20 year old officially licensed Stetson Rabbit (not that I don't still love it ).

Regards,
CaptainKatanga

I just got to say you are truly an artiste John.
Gorgeous.
Can't wait to get mine.

A couple of weeks ago I received my Penman Rabbit and it is sweet. It is definitely many steps above my officially licensed Stetson that I have had for 20 years. It is nice to finally not have that teardrop bash on top of my heed!! The Penman feels tough but soft and I am sure that I will wear it joyfully for many years to come. Great hat! I recommend a Penman to anyone looking to buy a new hat!

Regards,
CaptainKatanga

....nice pitch, CK, but you forgot the other part....?

...what could that be....

Hint....

Yes, of course, pictures coming in the next few days, I hope.

Best Regards,
CaptainKatanga

My Penman Last Crusade

LOVELY hat.

Lookin' good, Bruce! That's a happy man under a gorgeous hat!

DHW

That realy is one fine looking lid ! Love the colour! Looking good! W>

I agree, looks good BW.

Great looking hat!

Well, after half a year I finally got some decent sunlight pics of my moss green Raiders, and guess what? It still looks kind of brown in the photos. I think this is a felt that does not like to show its true colors. At least, not to amateur photographers. But, now that I've actually "field tested" it somewhat, I'm once again blown away by how amazing this thing is. It's still the most comfortable piece of headwear I've ever owned, even now that it's too big after some weight loss. And probably in a couple of weeks it will have a little baby ToD brother, woohoo!

Well, I'll never get tired of seeing that lid, so lets see the shots!!

Ian

Come on, PaS!!!!

Seriously, you know the drill:

DHW

...better get that thumb workin'....

Everybody now....

Post 'em UP!

All right, all right, here you go. These two probably turned out the best. Looks green compared to the brown of the backpack, but then it's surrounded by the much brighter green of the trees, so... y'know. Well, the color does look pretty good in the first shot but washed out in the second. *shrug*

Sweeeet hat. Just downright lovely.


And yeah, it's "green-ness" really comes out in these photos... I think so, anyway.
Beautiful (and very distinctive) lid, PAS...

I'm moss green with envy.

its camo...I can't see the hat!

Texan Scott wrote:its camo...I can't see the hat!

Aye, I just thought that half his head was missing..

I can defo see the green in those shots.....Looks great PAS!! Thanks for posting!!

Ian

Man, that hat looks AWESOME! I have a moss green "Penman" on order, which should be arriving sometime around Sept., and seeing these pics has just made my wait seem a whole lot longer!

VERY cool!

By the way, you are lookin' slim, my friend! You should add these pics to our other thread!

Keep up the good work, and keep wearin' that sweet hat!

Daren Henry

Thanks guys. Did I mention I love this hat?

I'm almost tempted to get my ToD in moss green too, but naaah, I want at least one movie-colored hat and probably ain't gonna be able to afford any more for a long, long time.

Great hat Psychic...

I like that colour, although I think I'd find it hard to pull off for myself...

John just told me that my CS Travel is going to be started sometime in July so I may have something to show here in a couple of months too! Can't wait in all honesty... This thread really helps me see what I'm waiting for... John's a #### of a creator..

That's a great looking hat, Psychic!

Since I've got green eyes, I may have to get one of those moss fedoras someday...

Fifthchamber, you're going to enjoy that CS Travel fedora! I know I do--here's one to hold you over :



Look forward to seeing pictures of yours when done!

Best wishes,
Nebraska Schulte

Nebraska....

Dude, yours was one of the ones that made me choose that colour actually....Fox's as well, and I originally asked John to make the crease more "Raiders" like, but asked him this week to alter that to a full on CS Style...Since if I want the Raiders crease I can add that in myself after I get the hat...The CS I have from Steve suits my face I think, so I went for that...

Your photos are great...I must admit having snuck back to this thread when　in need of a "fix"..Almost too many to choose from though...

Great looking hat Nebraska, and the suit looks perfect with it.

Great hat Nebraska!

Just a couple months from getting my Crystal Skull hat from John, and already thinking I should order the CS Travel now.

Here is a photo of my rabbit RAIDERS fedora, by the great Mr. Penman. I LOVE THIS HAT!!!! I just got a new one (Raiders) in beaver, too. I'll post pics of that one, as soon as I photograph it. In the meantime, here's the wabbit...





This man is an artist!!!!

That's a beaut!! Best shown on top of y'r noggin though...

Congrats to you and well done Mr Flexible Quercus!!

Ian

Very nice, Whisko!

A LOVELY lid!



But like Ian said, we'd love to see it on top of your head... That's when an Indy Hat truly takes on the shape it was meant for!

That's a fine lookin' lid! Pics of you wearing it would be great.

Here are a few pics of the new beaver Raider. I will post pics of the hat being worn, as soon as the rest of my outfit arrives (just waiting on the jacket and bag strap). I can't say enough about Mr. Penman. I have two more hats on order...and will be purchasing many more.

Okay excited now. John called today to ask if I wanted the Turn in my new beaver raiders. He put in the. Bash today. I'll get it end of next week after new boxes arrive.
