Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Newspaper ads placed by stores don't always reflect the product. That was the original reason for the Nothing But Stetson Ads thread - to show the information that Stetson was putting out in its ads. (That thread lost its purpose, which was as much my fault as anyone's.) This is not to say that... -
Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Cool. If the ad is right (and newspaper ads should be considered with caution), then it's not only original, I'd say it's quite rare. -

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
+1. I've been lucky not to have any problems as of yet. Like Alan, if I'm buying anything that can be crushed, I contact the seller either prior to the sale or immediately after and ask how they plan to ship the item. If it sounds like they're going a bit light, I'll offer to toss them $5 to... -
Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Just to be clear, I suspect that it's a repro, but I don't know that it is a repro. Here's the site with the sterling repros. They also look old, but I don't think they're marked as sterling. None of the pins I've seen, and I've had around 12 go through my hands now, have had any sort of... -

I spotted that one, but the seller's note that it had a "sterling" sticker on it made me suspect that it's a repro. I found it on NYPL's digital images a while ago. Type in "hat" and you'll find a lot of great stuff. __________________________ Congrats to the buyer who got the Vita-Felt, 7... -

The sweat has been replaced - and badly - with grosgrain. There's nothing wrong with the brim that 60 seconds and a little steam wouldn't fix. The sweat, on the other hand, will cost shipping, a hatter's services, and more shipping - and still won't be original. -
Any Info on This Odd Knox Low Topper?
Tango Yankee had one - I believe it's a Dobbs. It was determined (or at least thought) to be a woman's hat, so he gave it to his wife. Dobbs-Unusual-style-from-1918 -

+1. Your hat often looks white in photos, but the first shot really shows the great color. -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Thanks, guys. Alan, if I had 8-10 hours to kill in Cleveland, I'd hit Lake View Cemetery, the Cleveland Museum of Art, Presti's bakery, La Dolce Vita, and the Rockefeller Park Greenhouse. All are within a few miles of each other, and all are in and around the beautiful University Circle Area... -

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
We've been in Cleveland since Thursday. Even though we're natives of the area, we wanted to get a chance to slow down and look up. The Historic Gateway Neighborhood tours gave us a chance to do that. These are photos from three of the four tours. The Thursday evening tour covers the... -

I've never been to see Solomon Grundy. As far as shops, if it's not on the list, I've probably never heard of it. Hat-Stores-a-list It's been a long time, but someone asked about Boston in this thread. I remember that Alan has a hat from a place called Hand the Hatter. IIRC, it's in a now... -

Having spent a bit of time learning about bandanas and watching a lot of auctions, I've got a pretty good idea of what factors into their prices - but Carhartt goods are an entirely different animal.- Lefty

Goorin makes "designer" hats at designer prices. The hats have a modern style, and are made of cheap materials - wool felt, cut-and-sewn fabric, and fake straw models seem to make-up nearly their entire catalog. You can find hats made of those cheaper materials for $50 and under almost anywhere...
