I saw a hat on a character in the movie “Corsicana” about the US Marshall Bass Reeves. Does anyone know where I might get a hat like it? No really, not kidding. I have a big head, I need a big hat. I’m not sure if it’s a “Cowboy Hat” or a “Sombrero”….maybe both? I love the two tone weave and mottling. I can make a leather band. Sweet lid👍🏻
@RockyMountainBriar There's a place in San Antonio called Market Square (or Mexican Market Square?). It's a lot of small stores, shops and restaurants. Anyway, they had a lot of different wide brimmed hats similar to the one you pictured. Don't know if they have websites, but you can Google it and see what happens. Best I can do for you brother...
@RockyMountainBriar "I was thinking about the pine, tongue and groove wall covering and the newspaper😬"
I was stationed on the coast of Washington state from 1974 - 75 at a Long Range Aids-to-Navigation station consisting of three buildings built during WWII - Garage, Transmitter/Receiving building and Office/Living Quarters. While there, the Chief decided we needed to renovate the living quarters and we started by removing the sheetrock. Both he and the Group Office were surprised to find that the original walls were tongue and groove cedar boards.
The station was decommissioned five years later and from what I heard all the tongue and groove cedar was removed from the building and "sold" for a large donation to the morale fund.

Of course you are correct.
