Wild Root said:I know I'm coming in on this late but, I want to say in regards to the original intention to this thread that the the Stetson hat that sold for 180+ wasn't too much in any respect. In fact, that's a fair price considering it's age and condition... it looked really good! It's also one of the higher models of Stetson, looks to be late 30's or early 40's... it's a nice hat and I'd pay it had I seen it and had some spare cash.
I feel that some of us forget that these vintage hats are little miracles in that they're still being found and in good condition. A felt hat with no moth damage or any other damage that is 60+ years old is truly worth 180!

Tony in Tarzana said:So many in my little collection look like they've never been worn. The Stetson Homburg in my avatar is one of those. It came in the original box, which was fairly beaten up, but the hat inside was pristine. Yet it had the buyer's initials punched into the sweatband, meaning someone purchased it, took it home and never wore it.
I wonder if there's a "hat whisperer" out there who can get these lids to tell their stories?
