holy moley
I'm again reminded at how fortunate I am at not getting into Harvard. Otherwise, I might have had to bid way too much money on that hat.

Well, if the winning bidder is a Harvard alumnus, I suspect they can afford it!
Wonder when they stopped putting leather sweatbands in ball caps?

I believe that this hat once belonged to the late Thurston Howell, III...or was he a Yale man? :cheers1:

I might actually wear a ball cap if someone would reproduce the old style like that with the leather sweatband,etc.

They already do.
Try here: Cooperstown Ballcap Company
Try "Early Baseball" styles. You can specify leather or cotton sweatbands.
I love all their historical minor league team caps.

Those caps are cool!
They remind me of the cap Eugene wears in "Brighton Beach Memoirs."

The price is staggering but the biggest surprise is that as of this moment there are 18 bids on it.

Thanks for the link Brad. Those historic caps are excellent. I'm impressed that they list sizes over 8!! They also do custom ball caps. Maybe I should get one that says: "My other hat is a Fedora"!Brad Bowers said:

Wow
I was trying to think of something vaguely witty to say about the hat price... but I'm just kind of speechless. One antique ball cap that will do nothing but sit in a glass case with little motion detectors and a security guard by it would equal what, 3 Optimo's that could have been generously given away to FL members? :cheers1:

Rob
