This is just wrong.
In so many ways.

A sign of the times.

Would make a good conversation piece.

But what a bargain! At least there is some truth in advertising: "This is the only one on Ebay past or present."

I think this is some sort of concretion that formed over decades in some unswept corner of an old craft store...

That reminds me of the bottom of our boat in the Caribbean if we didn't clean the bottom for bit.

Could someone really believe this one?

Was just getting ready to post that myself. The hat might be older than Mr. Stipe.

Agreed. And, I think the seller was aiming for the Man On The Moon with that price.

Dang.
In retrospect, I should have captioned that Strat post as:
"So Andy, did you hear about this one..."

Right, and REM didn’t form until 1980. Maybe a shiny happy person will buy it?

The caption for this hat read: Simon Costin wearing hat designed
by Stephen Jones for the Museum of British Folklore.

This is not a comic kind of hat. Tina's comments, though amusing, not for sharing.

Try that search again next week and you'll see something similar, but a bit closer to being a Homburg.

If it was my size, I'd be all over that like Huggy Bear!

I could definitely see that one in Funkytown.

 

[Who?]

It looks almost fluorescent.

I'm sure some people might be put off by the color scheme, but that's not a bad looking hat.

So subway commuters can be more productive & not break their neck.

Did you bid?
How eye-opening!
Breathtaking!
Stomach-turning?!
I find it oddly appealing, if not antagonistic.
