for a few seconds, I thought I had this spectacular 30s Stetson Palm Beach cap at $80 - It went for 208.50

Congrats to the winner. This is one of the rarest Stetson items I've seen.

Stetson Cap

WOW!
Nice, not mine, not 1910.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130409699439#ht_546wt_1139

I had it at $107.77(until the next second)

 

[Lefty]

Though I had hope, I expected that my 76.59 wasn't going to cut it. I figured $125 or so. Still a great buy for an item that probably won't come around again anytime soon.

...not 1910...

I don't dispute this but how do you date it & by what criteria? Just curious, not a challenge mind you...you must've liked it OK to go higher than a C-note, eh?

 

[Orgetorix]

This beauty went sky-high at the last minute. Should have expected that, given the size.

Unfortunately, my wife wouldn't even let me bid on this curious little hat.

The Stetson Logo is from the 30's. Also identical to an example illustrated in 1939 Hat Life, although obviously cap styles were similar for a fairly long period.

Big Christy's Bowler

Or should I say derby?

Who got this 7 5/8
bowler when I forgot to bid? Let's see it!

 

[St.Ignatz]

Were the heck was I on that one? I hope it was one of us for that price.

I didn't think I'd get this one. Set a $40 max and forgot about it. A nice surprise. Is Wynewood a good company?

I've been waiting for an OR style for a bit, and I finally got one at a reasonable price

I've been watching for a 7-1/8 Milan with a nice wide brim for a while . . . I was happy to stumble across this one with a low Buy It Now price right after it was listed!

Can anyone (Brad) help me with its age?

Here's what the postman brought today...
