Siirous: So that was you that sat on for a day. Sorry about sniping that one but I've had quite a few sniped out from under me at the last second. I didn't put the biddng name to you but I thought it may be a lounger by some of your purchase history. I certainly hope that you get the next...
In reading some of the hat cleaning threads you are most likely correct Sharptoys. A little steaming a sponge & brush may do the trick. I guess I'll see for sure onve I get it in my mitts though. Thanks again.:)
Cheers!

This place has been a goldmine of information for me.:eusa_clap I've been fortunate enough to possess some knowledge to be able to share in the different departments.;) Thanks to everyone who shares their knowledge, you don't know how much you're appreciated.
These hat cleaning threads have...
Good find you have there!:eusa_clap The feather is a nice touch, not too overbearing at all.

Thanks gang! I really appreciate all the feedback. I've see some really beautiful pieces that y'all have shared after either purchasing in an antique store or on e-bay and thought you were the lucky ones. Thanks again.
Since reading all the threads on Naptha I'm thinking it wouldn't be wise to...
Yeah! I was hoping this might be a good one.:) There is a couple on e-bay that have the black sweatband and checked liner too, and they have several bids on them. This one didn't get bid on until yesterday and there was only one person that bid within the last few hours.I suppose they thought...

"It is marked John B. Stetson Company 3X Beaver, Pomeroy's Mesa, Arizona, and The Open Road...
That's ok Fedoralover, I don't think I will be giving this one up anytime soon.;) Since you seem to be the luckies dog on the porch when it comes to these great deals on vintage lids, I just feel fortunate enough to share that porch with you now. Do you think we can persuade you to take a photo...
Wanna' Trade?
So, Fedoralover, how would you like a nice vintage Borsalino in trade?;) That is one gorgous lid he made for you. Most impressive indeed.
Cheers!

Sound like I robbed these folks.:rolleyes: I got away with it for $75.50. Sorry, but I've been waiting for a pedigree like this one for some time now.:o I almost didn't get it at the last second. It was the $0.50 that won the day.
If the cleaning portion of it is beyond my skills Art will be...
I just won this one on e-bay!:D Hope it's worth the price tag. I thought for sure I was going to get hosed on this one and almost did by a hair.
Whew!
I can't wait to see what I can shape it into. The possabilities are dizzying.
Cheers!
