Very fascinating...
You know what? This is making some sense to me!
I pulled out ROTLA last night for fun (been a while) and I am re-struck with the feeling that the brim exceeds 2.5" on the sides -- I think 2 3/4 with a good curl is what it was.
And the Cairo scenes *really* make me agree with the 2 7/8" front brim depth.
And of other note -- anyone else notice how "shallow" (from front to back) the side pinches are in ROTLA, where as TOD and LC are "traditional" style fedora pinches?
I'm thinking of having a PB made in this style come January.
