    The Resistol Roundup

    Here is my latest - a San Antonio in 7X (Byer-Rolnick era). I have decided to leave this one in the "Open Road" style (most of mine are fedoras).

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Well, here is more positive story from ebay (after a streak of bad experiences in the past couple of weeks). I was doing a hat-related internet search and came across a picture of a great looking Resistol straw that I had never seen before - it was on the Resistol website in their "catalog."...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Here a Seller I want to do business with! It is so rare these days to find people that are customer-oriented and are willing to go the extra mile for those who want to buy from them. I may cut and paste this into my own auctions...

    The Resistol Roundup

    If anyone is looking for a project hat or "beater," I just listed this vintage San Antonio (size 7 LO) in the classifieds. A nice hat, but was suffering some undisclosed moth damage (no holes) when it arrived.

    FS: Double-Hat Storage Container

    Here is my second ebay disappointment of the week that may work out better for you! I recently bought two black plastic, stackable, two-hat, storage carriers on ebay. They were advertised as taking hats of “up to a 3.5” brim.” They won’t! None of my Open Roads or fedoras will fit (and all...

    ** SOLD ** FS: Vintage Resistol San Antonio Size 7 LO - Has issues PRICE DROP

    This is a very nice vintage Byer-Rolnick Resistol San Antonio, silverbelly, size 7 long oval. It has a 4” cattleman crown, 2-5/8” bound brim, and wind trolley. The hat is generally clean (certainly no hard use), sweatband is in good shape, and the liner is also in very good condition with a...

    HATS WITH HISTORY

    Homburg #2 This is the second of two homburgs I bought that belonged to U.S. Senator Guy Gillette (the Mallory shown above went to another Lounger). This one is a late 1940s - early 1950s Adam DeLuxe homburg, and the sweatband is embossed "Made Especially for Hon. Guy M. Gillette." I picked...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Homburg with a History Actually it was "new" to me about 3 weeks ago, but it went straight to the hatter for cleaning/blocking. This is one of two homburgs that belonged to U.S. Senator Guy Gillette, who served in the 1930s, 40s, and 50s. It is a late 1940s - early 1950s Adam DeLuxe homburg...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Well, it was certainly loved by the moths. I heard back from the seller who told me she had sold many hats in that condition without complaint, that she was unaware of the damage, and the pictures showed the condition. She told me she would take it back & refund $8, but I would have to eat the...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Resistol Disappointment I thought I got a great deal on a vintage Resistol San Antonio - unfortunately the seller did not mention the moth damage. I have sent them a message and I am waiting to see if they are standing by their "no return" policy. I suppose I have been very fortunate to have...
