Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

This kind of relates to Rickenbackers, because he played one when he wore his black leather hat. I ma looking for one now, either vintage or a reproduction made today. On "another" forum I posted this question but recieved no help. Can you guys help me through? Thanks.

I think I may be able to assist you. Are you interested in purchasing a hat?

Yes I am Peter, as long as "The Price is Right."

here's the link

I haven't AB'd the above with Johns hat but it looks pretty close

Peter, is this the hat you were thinking of? Thank yuo FrankN for your help and the link. It sure looks close!

Ben: Yes but there is another source. Thanks Frank for posting the link.

John's hat was actually closer to #200, "Ivy Leather"

If this doesn't have a snap on the edge where the brim and hat clip to each other, this would work nicely. John's didn't have a band on the front edge. His was almost like a leather beret with a large brim attached to the front. For the price, these would be good subsitutes though. Peter, what place were you thinking of? I know there's a few that make them similar.

Peter, what was the one you were thinking of? Is it one of the two listed? I would like to know so I can compare the two links with the pics in the Anthology book (some great ones) and decide. Thanks to all who have helped out!

Here's a hat that a friend of mine kindly sent me. I don't think it's exact but pretty close. [email protected] if you're interested. I'll ask him if he can still find one of these.




And this is the one I ordered last week from this store.

Oh, I forgot to uplaod the pic of the hat I ordered last week.

Ben: Tuck has posted the other one that came to my attention.

Thanks guys!
