Excellent find. I love that combination of short brim and psuedo-thin ribbon. Reminds me of this bond hat.
I remember closely watching a falcon sold with two other hats on ebay not all that long ago, I too tried in vain to find any info on them. I'd love to see better pictures when it arrives.
Nice find
I won a Brooks Brothers not a month ago that could easily be a 7 1/8 clone of yours (my avatar hat). I can't complain about the quality, when I decided to pinch it the dents went in like a charm and haven't caused any trouble.
Who knows...
Imagine 50 years from now, when people spend hours on ebay looking for that perfect vintage Giants ball cap, exactly like the one Short Round wore in Temple of Doom :rolleyes:

So far today I've seen the first two, and Hawaiian shirt has switched over to a straw. I also saw one of...
Wow, I've never seen that hairy finish before, but I like it a lot. Great hat!
Now I have to find one, or I'll never feel right when I'm out shooting.

Thanks for the help guys, the Knox doesn't give any indication as to it's material, so maybe I'm luckier than I thought!
My old girlfriend would flip if she saw that chinchilla hat that Jimmy Peirce has for sale! I can't imagine what else has ended up as a hat at some point or another...
Greetings all,
I've been looking for the perfect hat for a couple months, ever since I sat down with my father to watch his Humphrey Bogart collection. I stumbled across this site in my searching, which led me to my first two purchases on ebay. I've enjoyed goggling at all your fine headgear...
