sold in less than 3 minutes !!!!
For those of you who buys a hat off ebay, you know you will find a surprise once in awhile. The seller listed this as 7 1/2 and supposedly measured the inside circumference. When I opened the box I was really excited about this hat.
It is solid black with 2" ribbon/bow and a windcord. Plus it was a finished brim. It came out a little dusty, but the beauty came through with just a little bit of dusting. Wow..I got me a bargain of a black hat...till i put it on and it sank to my ears !!!
After looking inside the hat band, there was the size label...7 3/4... !!!!
The sweat is in good shape, needs to be sewn in one spot. I see no moth bites or holes...the felt is very pliable and I can hand bash it into just about anything I want.
It is a 2 5/8" finished brim and I believe it to be a 6" inch open crown...
I would really like to keep this hat...however it just looks funny hanging over my ears...I will sell it for what I paid for it and you pay the postage...
I can not call it a beater and I won;t call it perfect, but by golly for $30 bucks plus postage, you can tell me what you think of it !!!

It does come with a hat box. This is a New England brand hat from Cincinnati, OH.
Let me know what you think...
Thank you,
