: : Thanks for the pics. The Gary White looks like the Raiders
: : hat alright. I assume as you say it's lighter in the pics that the
: : color is darker than the ones where it's browner. Or closer to the
: : brown than the tan that came out in a couple shots. If so I think
: : that's pretty close to the sable or mink of the movie hat. I wonder
: : how much browner the one you're considering is? If the brown is
: : too much deeper it might be too dark. Has Gary sent you the color
: : chart? I think it would be worth the extra money, especially after
: : reading all the "WHERE'S MY HJ??" posts, to deal with Gary.

: : Again, thanks for the pics.

: Yes, some of the photos because of the flash and the close distance came out really light. There's a couple that the hat appears to be a light brown that is pretty close to the actual color. I think I had changed shutter speeds at that point and it worked out better. In some the hat appears to be almost orange looking. regards steve

When I bought that hat, Gary was offering it in the bronze and also the nutmeg, which is a medium dark brown. I went with the bronze because I wanted a weathered look. My next one will be in the nutmeg simply because I want one that is a little darker, as it will lighten up in time. Actually Gary sent me samples of the different colored felt, along with ribbon samples. Kinda handy because I knew exactly what I was buying. regards, Steve
