Bowler or Derby.....

[bolthead]

Hey fellas, I'm looking to get a Bowler or a Derby, vintage preferred. I'm also looking to trade rather than purchase. I have a lot of lids, mostly vintage, stingy......a few 7's, but mostly 6 7/8 that don't really fit me anymore. If anybody has one and willing to swap, please PM me or reply here.Thanks

I have a black homburg from the 1920's in a size 7. Most people on the street think its a derby. Would you be interested in trading?

Hey Bolt,

I have one, It's an old one too! It's sized a 7 1/8 but fits more like a 7. It's not in the greatest shape, there are a few "cracks" in the felt but they are impossible to see with out great scrutiny.

Sorry Metro, I do have a very nice Knox Superfine Homburg.

Gary, I love to do a swap for that one, but I'm afraid I don't have anything in your size. :eusa_doh:

Closed!

I now own the bowler shown above, and at a great deal too, thanks again Gary.
