Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Looks good overall, although it looks like there's a little mothing around the underside of the brim where the sweat is sewn in. I've been looking at hommies, too, and they always get so expensive. -

OK, now that I took pictures and looked more closely, it seems to me that the liner was replaced at sometime. The thing is, the thread for the liner and the thread holding on the company size/price tag is too white, too new looking compared to the sweat, etc. It has definite blue tones to it... -

What hat are you waiting for today?
I was thinking that, too, that it may have been made elsewhere. Could have been one of those Mikado straw hats the Japanese had that was sold in Manila before the war, or something like that. Your find doesn't look like the raffia hats I've seen; much finer. Maybe you'll know more when you... -

What hat are you waiting for today?
That could be something special, Bob. There were some nice straw hats out of the Philippines, and that looks like a nice "traveler" roll-up hat with the carry "case." It seems like I've read here on the FL about these before. Sorry to bother, again, but maybe @alanfgag knows more? -

Yes, it matches. It looks like the original sweat, liner and everything. I'll take better pictures. Even the price tag from the store and the other sticker with block size, hat size and reorder number are there. It looks original to me, but like Charlie says... I was wrong once before, so.... -

I picked up this Royal Stetson from Weslynn's lot he posted in the classifieds. Very nice hat and it fits like a custom. Marked 7-3/8 LO, but fits better than my other Stetson LO also. I brushed off the dust and dry creased it and it's good to go. Has anyone every seen a hatband/ribbon... -

Homero Ortega does sell their hat bodies to Stetson, among others. These are the toquilla straw dyed blue. I saw the straw in various stages of completion and weavers coming in to pick it up.... in blue, black and brown.
