7 1/4 Mallory Ten, Grey Hommie, Early 50's?

[M Hatman]

I have for sale this REALLY Clean size 7 1/4 Business grey Hommie. It is post Stetson (1946) acquisition as it has the 1817 date in the liner. Did I say REALLY clean..felt is really nice and supple too..nice clean wide sweat...appears unworn. I know I did not wear it....to small..... Looking for $120 shipped CONUS. Will consider a trade for something in the 7 1/2 to 7 5/8 (melon head) size if you have something......if purchase prefer the PayPal friends and family route.....saves fees. Do not worry....you will be thrilled with this one!

Nice, and my size. Is that a raw edge that has been curled or dressed?

It is a homburg so the edge is bound and curled much like a derby /bowler hat. In this incarnation they are essentially soft crown derbies worn with a centerdent crown crease (though this one came with a shallow diamond) and often with pinches (as this one has). They go great paired with a nice overcoat.........
I will be posting some more pictures soon.....

Finally found (misplaced where I had stored the hat) this and here are more pictures. It is a real nice medium dark grey just a tad darker than the current Carabou color Stetson has. Original pricetag of $10 under the sweat. Really nice felt......great hand.......Crown is a little over 5 inches as bashed, brim is 2 3/8 to the curl.....ribbon is a full 2 inches with that awsome bow!! Black crown ribbon with a matching (the felt color) spotless binding ribbon.
As you see this looks completely unworn....NO spots....No Stains.....on either the felt, sweat or lining. The ONLY flaw is two very small felt "chips" underneath the brim MUCH more visible in the first picture. VERY hard to see with the naked eye.....the hat is CLEAN, CLEAN, CLEAN!,
Thats IT!......this is a great hat that needs a good home.......I really wish it fit me......really really.........

Am especially interested in any good trade for a nice hat my size.
Feel free to shoot offers......

Thanks

An inquiry as to the measurement made me get out the tape.
Hat circumference is just under 23 (that is so hard to do..). Cross measurement is 6 1/2 by 8. So this seems a true 7 1/4 as tagged.
It is really in fantastic shape, very, very clean, with a nice supple sweat.

Bump for this really clean hat......

Very sweet hat and one hell of a deal!!!
Can’t believe it hasn’t been snatched!
I’d buy it in a heartbeat if i was still buying hats!
But then again....
Err..i gotta quit lookin at this hat.

I have a post-Stetson Mallory fedora and it's a gem! I was surprised how nice the felt is on mine, and this one listed here is a Mallory Ten, so higher quality than mine... and I paid a little more than @M Hatman is asking for this fine Homburg. A real deal here for someone.

 

[AbbaDatDeHat]

Errr....umm...ohhh....sheesh....drat!!!
Myself and i are having an argument over this one..

Yes, this one has that same nice hand to the felt. I really like how it feels....very supple, not at all stiff. I really, really, really wish it fit me.........it is a fine hat.

I wear a 7 1/2 if that helps......

[M Hatman]

I totally would but I've already got an earlier Mallory 7-1/4 that is just like it. Get's compliments every time.

Is this still available? I don’t have anything to trade but might be interested in buying.
