So was mine, but she married me anyway!

Yeah, this is a 60s hat. While Disney may have been known for great hats earlier, this one is likely manufactured later by somebody like Hat Corp of America (going from memory here, can't remember who was carrying the Disney name at that time). That and the stingy brim makes is much less valuable. It's difficult to tell as the pics are kinda blurry, but it may have a Cavanagh edge. So it has that going for it, which is nice...

What's all this wallop? Free advertising? Good Lord!

$50 hat ....55 if you remove that feather.

 

[Sweatbandjo]

C$50! As much as that? Surely not? Listen 40Cal, that feather.... It's the only thing you can see for heaven's sake. Take that away and your bidding on a black hole. But I agree, say C$ 22 without the feather I always wanted a black hole.

Was Walt Disney alive then...? If so it could be his very own hat! I believe Moon saw one in the classifieds given to Mr Disney himself! Made by the Italian hat maker Geppetto.

I think I discovered the source of that feather!

You are a genius Robert, I take my hat off to you. I think Donald is about to give the wee sod a good ducking. A bit like Trump giving .... well never mind we won't go into that just now.

I don't think I'll be eBaying for a while, it's mayhem here Armageddon without the armour. Britain falls off the cliff and nobody left to pick up the pieces. I live in Paris and my UK sterling pension...... Well it's tied to the exchange rate and I could literally watch it evaporating live on Thursday night..... Buddy can you spare a dime? Pass the Kleenex. It's a shocker, you can see exactly where the Govenor of the Bank of England heaved Billions in funny money at the fall in the middle of the night, the pound rose but fell straight back and on down, that's the double (thicker) black line on early Friday morning's cliff face. Billions in dud money down the pan.

The color seems exact...

You can thank to the lies and misinformation both parties done.
Here "everyone" is concern how much Mourinho is going to loose by signing for Manchester United! NOT! (LOL)

That's so true Joao. I wonder if his manager had the contract made in £s, €s, or $s I think there's a great lesson to be learned here. For me that would be 'only sign up in vintage Borsalino fedoras, keep your hat on.. and be ready to run....'

 

[Joao Encarnado]

In every news the contract currency is in pounds... but details are probably in god's secrets.

I really feel with you - and almost half of your countrymen! As we're getting used to SMS' and FB-updates, we expect political explanations and visions of no more than 160 characters. I believe that to be a more or less global problem these days - and I'm afraid history will prove it to be the greatest of all our contemporary global problems.

On the bright side: Confederate Grey is pretty nice hat color

Yeah Ole , like Dominos .

I won a couple , I'll post this one tonight ... . A Stetson 4X Rancher , 3 1/2" Brim , whonked a bit , and like cardboard . A Deputy Sheriff's Hat . I actually wore this Sunday as is (WHEW ! A No No)



Brim Kicked Up more on one side , waving , and the crown needs a little blocking , or evening out . Yeah I was a mess , tired in these pics , too . But I got it , might could use the edge of the Brim sanded , too . Night Night . Big Score Other Than eBay , 20X and this wasn't too bad either , once I get it straightened out . Start Over , or Right Up , or Left Down ? Decisions decisions ... , Probably Start Over on this One . But Otherwise its in good shape , minor stuff .
