Okay, who won the Lost Worlds Deerskin Coat?
Did someone here win this Lost Worlds deerskin coat? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230540282471 I sure bid, but did not bid enough. I wasn't sure if it would be too hot for the SF Bay Area, what with the alpaca lining and the lister did not respond to my question...- feltfan

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Some of my best hats started as bad pictures and descriptions. Some of my worst deals from clear, if inadequate, pictures and listings. I second that the lister in the overwhelming majority of hat auctions has no idea what he or she has and must be lead by questions. Heck, most vintage... -
THE MALLORY MILE
Am I the last guy here to figure out that the Cravenette process used on Mallory hats was not exclusive to Mallory hats? I just looked at a listing on eBay for a wool overcoat (like I need one...) with the Cravenette label. Doing an eBay search (apologies to future viewers if these links die)... -
HOLY GRAIL? /What fedoras are you pining for?
I have hesitated to post to this thread simply because I have so many hats I like, it seems greedy to want another. Putting aside the usual "holy grail" hats like a Crofut-Knapp fedora from back in the day or one of those Borsalino cowboy hats made for the South American market in the 30s or a... -
Good hat cleaner & blocker in Saint Paul, MN
Huh. I bet an awful lot of local dry cleaners don't have Web sites. Anyway, it sounds like a place that goes back a few years. Hm, I'm not sure if this protects the dame who doesn't want to get tied up or warns the dame who does... BTW, hdrsnr, I'd be interested in seeing the result if you... -

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
I did a search on this site from Google the other day. Brought up cached pages in the old format. Man, was that easier on the eyes. I might add that at least some of the thread numbers have changed. So if you do such a search, you get the wrong threads. That's going to kill a lot of the... -
The Dobbs Diner...
Look at that crazy bow. Oh, what I'd do for a bow like that... What a great hat, Brad. Thanks for sharing. So sorry it doesn't fit. -
Fat foot, high instep boot rec's.
Okay, so we don't know what the original poster is looking for. I am assuming that custom is out of his price range or there would be no problem. One other thing I wanted to note- most cowboy boots have disappointingly tight insteps. However, you can probably get a shoe store to stretch...- feltfan

Fat foot, high instep boot rec's.
[keep in mind that we may have to re-post everything here, since they are updating this site] Depending on the boot, I have a EEE or EEEE foot and a high instep. I am very comfortable in a EEEE Viberg boot (actually, I could probably do with a EEE) and wear both a EEE and a EEEE Wesco...- feltfan

Forum Upgrade -- POST ANY ISSUES HERE
I guess I missed the original white lines, but the borders around posts still bug me. Looks too busy and crowded. Other than that, looking good. I, too, am amazed and grateful to those who maintain this site. I know how tough that is to fit into a busy life. Thanks. BTW, anyone...- feltfan

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Thanks Brad. That was more or less my guess. Good point, RLK, too. I was just wondering if perhaps it broke into the 1930s. My guess (and hope) is that it is a very light weight hat, based on the sewn-in, almost Panama-like partial lining. I asked and the seller does not appear to... -
Screaming deals on vintage lids
I drooled at those listings myself. Some incredible stuff at very reasonable prices. I almost went to the head shrinker! Time for Jamespowers and some of the other big melons to do the same! -
Mohair hat and is it considered a fedora?
Why wouldn't it be a fedora? Looks like a stingy brim 60s fedora to me. It is not, however, mohair. It might be angora goat fur, but it's a felt hat. There are a lot of fuzzy or hairy hats on this site (including the recent thread on James Taylor's hat). Have a look. I don't think... -
Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
My thought exactly and I was prepared to pay more. I sure hope the dimensions and condition live up to the listing. I have to admit I'm finding that to be one tough hat to date. But admit it, Lefty- you secretly love those black hats. -
Anyone own a J. Peterman Cavalry Twill Coat?
Interesting jacket. I don't get a good idea of size/fit, though. Could those who have the jacket give guesses as to how the sizes of the jacket map to standard jacket sizes? Sounds like they run large. I'd normally be inclined to get the XXL and usually I wear a 50 jacket. But I'm...- feltfan

eBay's Most Paranoid Vendor
I'm wondering if the seller will accept a ruined, stained hat? I'm just not sure. And I *never* do business with Conroe, Texas! What a nut. Maybe you should list the hat here for a couple of days and see if someone wants it. Could save a lot of grief. -

Fall Clean-out - More Items 9/25
What is the jacket made of? Cotton? Where is it made? Is there any material left over to lengthen the sleeves just a bit? Any more photos? Thanks!- feltfan
