Sixth, Schoble Velour. It was filthy, misshapen, and missing the sweatband. Ignacio says it's the best felt in the bunch. Could someone help me date it from the paper tags?
Fifth, a John Wanamaker Panama. Really small, even, tight weave. It was a little damaged in transit to Mexico, so Ignacio put some stuff on it to close it and stop it from spreading. Undetectable unless you put it up to the light. It was also dirty, so I bought it for $250. Ignacio is a treasure...
Fourth, an Optimo that was so big (62.75) and had such a narrow brim the seller had trouble selling it, so I got it cheap. I gained about half an inch (1/8 inch for each size).
It is really soft, no stiffener I can feel, which is unusual for an Optimo. Yellow liner, so has to be 100 beaver, at...
I just picked up a batch of finished hats from Ignacio. Cleaning, resizing, conforming, etc.
First hat an excellent Alley Kat. Big and heavy FEPSA beaver. Big enough for Joao
Thanks, Brent! I wish eBay would have a rule I saw on another site. If there is a bid less than one minute before the end of the auction, you have another minute to respond. That should take care of bots.
