That's a pretty 100, too. I saw that one as it was moving along. Way to big for my little size 7 head, though. Outta my price range too just before Christmas.
I just got a Stetson Rancher in the mail today that I won on ebay for $13. I am pleasantly surprised with it. I only paid $13 for it and meant to tear it down and do some things to it. But once it got here I realized I'd better leave it alone. Turns out it is a Stetson 25 from the 1960s, not just a cheapie Stetson 3X or something. Very supple felt. Of course, I am a bit annoyed now, too, because now I have to get another open roadie-style hat to play with like I wanted to.
Another WW2 Sofia Survivor--joining its Gray brother.

Nice catch, MV, especially for the price!
That is a real beauty! Interesting some of these coming out again and not in tiny sizes.
I won this very nice light brown Mayser Homburg. It appears to be in great condition too.
One I hadn't seen before
Congratulations, Steve! Very rare one, indeed. :eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap
Thats a beauty. Im getting into the shape of a nice homburg. Love the color, overall, and especially the matching ribbon.
Finally scored one of these for a reasonable price. You can actually hang 13 hats on it (with some brims overlaying each other). They turn up on ebay once in a while. All of them I've seen are made out of walnut and are the same dimensions.

I was in Steinhafels (Wisconsin furniture store) yesterday and there were reproductions of this hat rack available. They seemed to be pretty well made (not like antique walnut). You may want to check at your local stores. Also found at least one online source here: HatRack

The pegs on the reproduction seem to be significantly shorter than the one posted by buler. I dont know if fedoras would stay on it, those little womens' (not the novel) hats not withstanding.
