Beautiful VS Pecan by Art Fawcett

[Blackthorn]

I am thinning my collection, and I have TWO pecan hats by Art. I wear the other one more, so this one goes on the block. It measures 23 3/8 in circumference, has a 2 1/4 stitched brim. The crown is 5 1/8 at its highest, and 3 5/8 in back. $250 gets it economy shipped to the CONUS, without Art's nice hat box. $50 more if you want the box, too.

Price lowered to $225

I don't have a tape measure handy so approx what size is the hat?

 

[Blackthorn]

As close as I can measure, it's 23 3/8

 

[Doublegun]

Sorry, should have been more clear; is it a 7-1/4, 7-1/2, etc? I don't have a tape handy so inches does not really help. Thanks.

 

[Blackthorn]

Ah, sorry, it's like a 7 1/2.

I'm leaving on an international trip soon, so am dropping this to $200 so hopefully it'll sell in time for me to get it into the mail before I leave.

 

[alhartman]

I will take it at $200 shipped to Oregon. I don't have enough posts to IM so let me know how to proceed...................al

 

[Blackthorn]

OK, alhartman, we have a deal, as soon as I get the Paypal payment. If you reply this post, and then one more, you'll have enough posts to send me a PM, and I'll give you the instructions there.

 

[Blackthorn]

Or if you prefer, you can give me your Paypal address here, and I'll send you the request for money. Either way, at the moment, the hat is still available.

 

[alhartman]

my PayPal is wahartman@hotmail.com. Send request and I will honor by sending. Thank you............al

 

[Blackthorn]

Will do, and thanks!

Al, I mailed it out today. Enjoy!

 

[alhartman]

And I got it today. Love it thank you. Do you recall which of the VS felts this was made from? Thanks again.

 

[Blackthorn]

That would be the Century, Al. It was back when that was the only beaver felt he offered. He only offered beaver and rabbit, before the many options he offers now. I'm so glad you like it! It's a fine example of his work.

 

[alhartman]

Thank you for the added history. And it is a fine example of Art's work; I will have to add to my to-do list getting a custom hat directly from VS.

Yep, I have a bunch more that I'll never sell. I only sold that one because I had two Pecan hats, and only wore the other one. The rest of my VS hats, I'll leave to whatever grandchildren I may have some day.
