Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

[billysmom]

Well, while I had expended my December hat money (by Dec. 2, as Gene reminded me ) I have now spent January and February's but I got a really nice green Stratoliner for the credit. I feel like the Federal Government, except I'm spending my own money and not someone elses', in advance!!! lol lol lol

Here's the link:

Mr. P., that is well worth dipping into future funds for. Outstanding!

That one looks great!

 

[Mr. Paladin]

Thanks everyone. I missed it the first time, but the seller was gracious enough to re-post it and remove the reserve, so I made another run at it. I think a green Strat will be the perfect addition for my little thin ribbon crew!

Rollable Borsalino

I picked up this rollable Borsalino at what seems an eminently fair price. If the seller's measured 22 1/4" internal circumference squares with the hat's apparent "5" Punti size, this one should be wearable for me.

I can't say that I know a lot about Borsalinos, or the company's rollable hats, in particular. But this one certainly looked worth a try.

The liner says Borsalino, Alessandria. Does anybody know if this is an indicator that the hat pre-dates the company's move from the old Alessandria facility to its new suburban digs?

Someone stole this poorly listed Dunlap Westlite OR-style. I missed the end of the auction or the price would have gone up....

Good question. This one (a more recent vintage, I believe) went for just a bit more. Must have been the liner.

Cheers,

It's a yawn-inducing, mousy grey color.

I liked that one, but it only has a 2" brim, is '60s (I think) and in the end, went too high in my opinion. Still, a nice-looking hat and liner I hadn't seen.

Hey, I like 'mousey grey'! I put in a $76 bid just as a place-holder - surprise.
