    OTHER THAN eBAY Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    just got a Montecristo, in my size no less, all there, but definitely needs a bit of cleaning; soiling is mostly on the top of the brim, crown looks pretty good; question is, how do I go about cleaning a nice straw without ending up cryin' da blues??

    Penman Raiders hat for trade?

    and a good lesson to ALL: we are all customers, one way or another, and in this day and age of internet communication and global contacts, things are bound to hiccup sometime; get back to your source, explain honestly, and simply ask for what you want again. There is no room whatsoever for a...

    Today show segment on hats 7/8/14

    Hey there: The TODAY show did a long-ish segment on the resurgence of hats this am; centered on one hatter in Manhattan who brought a hattery back to life, and is selling a ton of hats; said the most popular style is "Indiana Jones"; works well for a lot of us, and the footage of women...

Showed photos to a friend in the business, European dealer in antiquities and copies therof, and he pegged it for a '20's piece without my input. Lot...

    Garrett's Spring Cleaning Sale

    Garrett: yank 'em off the block- too nice and too valuable to literally throw away. Put 'em in boxes, hide them from daily sight, and re-visit in early Sept. Really. If they were my size I would've bought them already, and I'm not buying right now...
