[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 349096, member: 1365"] I'm amazed. I didn't think anyone else around here ever knew what an Akubra WAS. I've got 4 - 5 (if I can find 'em all). I've got a black Banjo, a Coolabah (with the gator band), a Townsman, a Federation and one other that's a lot like a Fed. I took the snake band off the Patterson and put it on the Fed and mostly wear that just kickin' around. I have a couple of others in the closet...my two favorites being a couple of customs from Art Fawcett (if you know hats you should now be gasping in lustful awe)...one charcoal grey with matching band and one ivory that has a to die for reverse taper that I commissioned after watching William Powell in The Thin Man one too many times. Man...those Fawcett beavers are something else. Art's website is "Vintage Silhouettes" or something close. Check out his work online, or go to a movie set in the 30's orv40's...the hats the guys are wearing are likely his. [/QUOTE]
