Its a homberg. Look at the hat sweat band. It says st.Regias. That is what Stetson called their homberg's. I was going too bid on I it , but now since everyone has been informed about it I think I'll pass

In my view, it really better not to link to live auctions.

On this point, I'm in the frumpy minority ... ;)

Ah. That's one problem with posting a live auction, I guess: you risk someone else wanting it even more than you.

Take heart, though, you'll land a nice homburg one of these days.

That's another reason to go ahead and place an opening bid rather than waiting 'til auction end. Sellers are less likely to yank the rug out if someone has placed a bid.

HT24 - incorrectly listed items are your friend. Often the best deals are to be found among them.

As Zetwal said, you'll always be able to find a Homburg. There are only 5 people that look good in one so less demand than for a similar quality fedora style.

I would have bid on these (a Stetson [top] and an Adam [bottom]) if I hadn't already saturated myself this week. I liked the two-tone ribbon colors, which is a little out of the ordinary for my tastes. I'm thinking the ribbons must not be original? Anyone here grab them?
