Good get Max. Impressive to me was the pristine case as well. I asked the seller if he had the cut out. No luck or it woulda been a little more difficult for you to get! LolJust bought my second Knox One Hundred today, from the classifieds.
Some ignoramous cut the original owner's name off the sweatband, and there are some stains on the felt, but I am betting they will come off and I can graft leather from another sweatband to the void in this one. Can't be harder than a free gingival graft, can it? [emoji4]

If the stain is oil or grease based, I'd use naphtha. Rust, etc, white vinegar is better.... but after using it, it made the rest of my 40s Champ look dirty so i cleaned the whole thing with naphtha after that.

They "tossed" this jewel in for free. Didn't help things bouncing around in that box.

O no. That makes my stomach turn. Such a shame about those panamas. A felt can bounce right back, but these straws are lost. So sorry, Bob.

At least you have a last drop 3x! What is wrong with people? My last 3 packages from USPS have been delivered to the wrong address. I caught the carrier who mis delivered my 7x and followed her to the wrong address she had delivered it to!
Incompetence is everywhere! And no accountability!

I had forgotten about these Bob. I guess it’s a good thing. Unfortunately you never will!
I kept saying, ohh, ohh, ohh and the pics kept on and on.
My Dad had a saying when i was a kid.
“If you had a brain, you’d be dangerous”.
Now i know what he meant.
Condolences Bob X5.

Imagine if you hadn't asked them to be careful.
Really sorry to see this. Felt can survive almost any packing abuse. Those panamas can't. Sad.
