ATTN Discriminating Straw Hat Buyers

[HarpPlayerGene]

This is a must see item I'm offering on Ebay.

I think we can guess how it is that this one remained unused ...

 

[fluteplayer07]

I'm curious to see if someone actually bids on that beauty...

 

[rlk]

Not quite my size, do you think Art can make one?

 

[fluteplayer07]

I doubt even Art would have the mad skills necessary to make something this intricately and challengingly complex.

lol That thing's only been on the 'Bay for a few hours and it's gotten EIGHTY-SIX VIEWS! lol

Surprisingly, no one has put it on their Watch list, and no one has stabbed a bid in there yet. [huh]

If it doesn't sell the first time around, I'll shoot a bullet hole in it and try again...

Some student on a Rodney Dangerfield kick would love this hat. It's quite a funny hat, in its way. If only it were College Football season, someone would want it for Breakfast Club.

Get ready to ship that baby to California! I'm wearing it in my next Tournament!

 

[HarpPlayerGene]

BOO-YAA!!

 

[GWD]

As long as it stays under $10.00

 

[HarpPlayerGene]

lol lol

I honestly didn't expect ANYONE to bid on the thing. It now has over 150 Views, one Watcher and two bids. It's at $10.00 now.

C'mon, Gary - a hat this fine is worth fighting for!! lol lol

I DONT KNOW IF ART CAN MAKE ONE BUT I SURE CAN.....

Gene, you didn't post it correctly, you should have put the word "Whippet" in the description. You could have gotten at least $200.00 for it!

It may be worth fighting for and it would be my flagship hat in the "Unique and One of a kind" thread...but the loose palm frond is a deal breaker for me. lol

 

[fluteplayer07]

Gene, I forgot to ask you an important question (which I believe we will all be interested in the answer to). Where did you get this thing??!?! A garage sale? Dumpster diving?

...Ya know, the more I think this through, the more I'm thinking that I may actually not want to know the answer to it...

fftopic: W&W--can you PM me with an answer to this question: Are you the guy in New York that the visitor from Saturday thinks you are? fftopic:

Wow! That hat is ugly, good ugly, really good. If I give you some postage stamps, can you put it on the back of a camel, and send it up here?

 

[Aureliano]

I DONT KNOW IF ART CAN MAKE ONE BUT I SURE CAN.....

W&W as in Worth & Worth?

Cracks me up.

That hat looks VERY much like the one that Dwayne at TheFedoraStore.com used to have on in his picture on his Web site. I'm sure he was wearing almost the exact same hat...of course, it was late 50s/early 60s and he was five or so at the time...now we can see it in all of it full-sized, full color glory!

 

[HarpPlayerGene]

Dumpster diving?

I prefer to think of it as a rescue operation.
