Just landed this one:

Although I don't know why I think I need another Homburg - except that I don't have a blue one.

Sue, you are very good at picking out older hats in nice condition.

 

[Dinerman]

It's '30s.

 

[Lefty]

still have the ebay link for that stetson?

It went for under $12.

 

[mayserwegener]

Sigh...

I couldn't resist. I figured this wouldn't go too high so I tried and actually won this vintage Pilgrim with nice wide edge binding. Went for $22.49, which was only a few bucks below my max bid.

Great find! The ribbon - binding contrast is very cool. :eusa_clap

Never can have too many Homburgs! That is a super one indeed!

I succumbed. I have been trying to get my hats down to a manageable number via ebay...then this comes along:

Knox Twenty on ebay

Whoa Scott great hat.. With a history also! It's a real collector piece I think. Nice lid too.

Wow that is great! The Scooter's playing days were before my time but I remember his colorful radio/tv commentary.

Thanks, guys. I am a huge vintage baseball fan - any hat connected with a sports figure has appeal to me - but wondering how an extra long oval will sit on my head.

really? no one? You 7 1/8s have it too good.

 

[Mahagonny Bill]

I was sure this was going to spark a bidding war at the last minute so I didn't check on it. If I had known it was going to go for less that $50.00 I would have been all over it. I hope a lounger got it:

Vintage Gray Stetson Sewn back edge Fedora 7-3/8 Beaver

A hat a day keeps thy addiction at bay.nice hat sue

Hmmm, I think "a hat a day keeps thy addiction at ebay" might be more accurate.

 

[colps]

I'll go for that.

It's really new (say the logo and sweat) and it's not beaver (because it would certainly say so on the sweat).

A lounger is dumping a lot of hats at one time damping demand.
