Post New Hats Here!

YOU HAVE MY ATTENTION

one of the best hauls I have seen in a very long time ... looks to be a later Whippet when the dimensions started to change ...
are they all your size ?
ridiculous score !!!

To answer the various questions and comments;

They are all my size except for the Whippet which is a size 7. It was good fortune that nearly every decent hat I found was in a size I could wear. I passed on an Open Road in my size as I have enough of that style. The only exception were two size 7 Whippets, one of which I bought obviously.

No I don't find this stuff at my local flea market either. It was at the Brimfield show, which is the granddaddy of all flea markets.

And yes I will probably resell the Whippet.
