WANTED: Starter lid for a big melon

[Eric]

Hey all, I'm still looking for a good starter fedora. I need at least a 7 3/4, preferrably a c-crown, teardrop-eque. (Sorry, don't know all the lingo yet)

I'd like one like the one in my avatar over here <---- that Harry Anderson is wearing. Cheaper the better since this will be my starter-lid.

I could give you a late 40s or early 50s Fedora in black for... lets say 30$.

IMO it looks very exactly like the one in your avatar!

Hey that sounds good! Do you have any pics online?

 

[The real Henry]

Here's the only one I have by now!(sorry for the bad quality) I'll post some other ones tommorow!
The felt is in very good quality, but the sweatband dried out and I also got it without a lining(No worries, I'll put a blank ecru-colored lining in for free), which is the reason for the low price!

I hope you like the look!

Hey I like it. What's the exact size and how much would shipping be?

 

[The real Henry]

The size is 58,5 to 59 and shipping would be about 17?¢‚Äö¬¨ (20-25$) to the US.

 

[Zach R.]

A 58-59 is NOT 7 3/4, at best it is a 7 3/8ths.

60 cm equals a 7 1/2...

I bought a great Fedora for about $40 bucks from Stacy Adams in Baltimore.
