Thanks, Bob! It would be complicated to haul it to Mexico, thougg.
They told me it would break completely down. I was planning to haul it in a small cargo trailer.

John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather.

How about something like this. From the Borsalino hat museum.![]()
see your hat storage rig. Can you repost?Here's my rig with all my hats minus my WW homburg and Knox top hat which are on hat stands next to my desk, across from this unit.
At some point I owned about 120 but now I'm happily settled with 29 (actually 30 as there is one on its way which will go in the last remaining hook beneath the panama)

I am not that many away from attaining all on this list.
But I know I have missed something(s)
The photos won't load and if like to
see your hat storage rig. Can you repost?
Do you have any Towncraft fedoras? I bought one on ebay the other day and it looks great in the photos.
Hi, Bowen! I will wait until I build my hat room. I will call you soon! Meanwhile, te mando un abrazo!Well…@drmaxtejeda, it’s been 2yrs 3mo+ since your “solemn swear” last hat safe.
In Max hat time there must be a couple hundred more, minimum, hats to house. But dónde??
Since you are retired, congratulations by the way, no patients would be un-dentisted by your absence.
Perhaps a pictorial tour is in order??
Suggestions would be a safe by safe pictorial or better yet a video visit with your commentary.
I have to believe you have one special safe for the unicorn hats.
I doubt i’m the only inquiring mind here at the lounge so let’s all encourage Max to bring us coveting dreamers up to speed on probably the best hat collection in the world.
We haven't hablado’d in awhile, we should catchup, possibly this weekend??
Tu amigo

Thanks Steve. Now i have to find some space for it lolLove it, Marcel. Nice find.
I was looking at something like that myself. Much more efficient use of 30" of floor space!
Many thanks for the suggestion! Mine came in today. Almost the same but mine doesnt have the spot for a hat up top center. That should be simple to make. Need to do some sorting so I can get all the summer hats on it so that theyre easier to grab. Much better option than stacking hats all over the dining room! And I still have space left for more hats!I bought this hatrack yesterday. Didn't receive it yet, but i hope i can place it somewhere in the house haha.
