Yeah Baby!! Now you’re talkin!! One fine fine hat right there Dogman, and pristine!!Friday estate sale finds.3 boxes,$2 ea,one had a hat in it.No price on hat so when I went to pay...The young lady said,how about $5.Couldn't say ok fast enough.Don't know if I'll keep the crease?
That just makes it worth more....
I buy them all the time...Not that lucky...Maybe only in hats.But that's ok with me.
The boxes are what I went to the sale for.In the pics they had ball caps on them,so didn't even think that there might be a good hat.
Thanks.Have had some really good karma lately...Don't know why,didn't think I've been that good.

Dang.....Now I have to wear it with the Cattleman crease,just to prove I'm not afraid.Maybe I'll learn to like it.I do like it on other people.
Latest flea market finds,2 hats a Champ and a Dobbs.I've been lucky finding Champs that fit.The Dobbs I got because when I looked at it I could tell it was a large size.I have a couple of large cranium friends that would like liners.I never had a large hat to size one in,but I do now.The Dobbs is a 7 3/4 largest size I've ever found.Then I will put it up for sale.It will be a great stingy for someone.

Bummer! A better day's ahead.I was having a bad week, but a hat was delivered today! This is usually somewhat stressful as my wife never knows until the box hits the porch. Her anger is offset by the joy the hat brings me.
Not today though. No hat joy at all as it doesn't fit! I did my due diligence, but still have a size 7 hat in hand (and I'm a 7-1/2 or 7-5/8).
Ugh... (and it is nicer than the photos show)

.........I was quite unawares just how many people just cannot use a measuring tape or ruler.
Total bum out Bob cause that is an absolutely beautiful hat. Maybe you can trade it for a super duper that fits.I was having a bad week, but a hat was delivered today!
