thanks mark!
an interesting story behind that one actually...the hat belongs to a friend of mines father who passed several years ago...an old farmer that was as much my father as my own...i called him and his brother (my friends uncle) the last american cowboys. they used to wear hats like the one pictured with denim shirts and jeans...never saw them wear anything else.
a few years ago i was visiting back home and my friend gave me that hat. it was one of the old hats he wore.
inside of the hat, written in permanent marker it says, Texas 1976.
i am guessing that they bought it there and it had definately been worn...so i brought it home and wore it down to the beach one day. i took that picture and send it back home with the title: texas 1976/ emerald coast 2001.
it has a huge amount of sentimental value to me. these were great men.
after that they broke the mold.
