Thanks. Brim width is 2".

I had a feeling it was about that. If it was 2 1/2-2 3/4 I think you might get your price but the stingy brims don't always fetch as much. Still a nice hat, rare size, vintage and Nutria you never know what someone might be willing to pay.

Nice hat. Looks like the stitching is failing on the unreeded sweatband and almost no one
fixes those these days.

That said, I find that a relatively stingy brim is less of a problem, aesthetically, if the crown is tall
and this one looks tall. Tempted.

Taking into consideration what you said I would be willing to give it to you for $275. Does that sound like a fair deal?

Personally, I would pay around $150 tops due to the stingy brim and prospect of fooling with the
sweatband some day. And because I already have a lot of nice hats.
You might be able to do better on eBay. I don't know. It's a nice hat and I appreciate
that you shared it with us and made me such an offer.
