: I know, I know - the fucking Banky caps again. It's a subject you can't
: escape on this board. And in an effort to shut ya'll up by simply making
the hats again, we've been laboring like mutts to actually FIND the caps.
The problem is, this color hat is near impossible to track down, short of
paying seven hundred grand to
create a run of them ourselves, which we'd gleefullydo, if we knew there
were seven hundred grand worth of you willing to buy the caps once they
were done.
: We thought we had a handle on it, but just learned that the manufacturer
sent the embroiderer a run of the hats with a logo stitched into it that
we'd never seen before (either on the movie hat or the previous run we
did). When we asked for a run witho
ut the logo, we were told that it's now the only way this hat is made.
Needless to say, we were incredibly frustrated, after just having put the
good word out that Banky caps were on the way.
: This is where you come in. I'm asking you guys and gals - the ones who
give a shit about the Banky caps - for your input. Click on the pic below
and tell me if you can live with this logo on your Banky cap (on a
side-note: the image of the cap you'll
be seeing doesn't have the Banky design on the cap yet). If you can live
with it, we'll go to press with them. If you can't, we'll put the kibbosh
on the order, which is okay; but means that we'll probably never be able to
offer Banky caps again, as nob
ody makes this color in the fitted cap that resembles the one Lee wore in
the flick (we could make snap caps in this color, but then it's not really
Banky's cap, now is it?).
: I leave the choice in your hands.
: Reply below this post with simply "Yes" or "No" in the subject line,
followed by an 'NT'. I don't need your life story or five paragraph theory
on why you can or can't live with it; just a simple "Yes" or "No", p
lease.
: Time is of the essence here, as we've got twenty four hours to reject the
caps, or we're stuck with them forever.
: Anyone not intending to purchase the Banky cap need not post.
: Thanks. The cl
