Nobody went for the Big,,,,,, Juicy,,,,,,,, Sexy,,,,,,,,, HAT! (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Big-Juicy-Sexy-HAT-/120973467167?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c2a949e1f)!
Surely a modern stingy brim fedora (probably cotton or wool) previously owned/worn by an unidentified celebrity is worth at least $499!
Here is a seller that truly believes what P. T. Barnum said "there is a sucker born every minute". Or is it a fool and his money are soon parted.
I recently won this unusual Hückel Guama Somberero on a tip from Manfred. It's a tiny size so I didn't pay much for it (19,00 EURO including shipping). I am pretty sure this is an early TONAK Hückel that was made for the Venezuelan market. I found this regarding thee th Guama Somberero (poor Spanish translation).
("The hat 'pelo'e Inga' is not Venezuela," argues Torres. It turns out that one of the icons is Criollito venezonalidad the defunct Czechoslovakia. Mr. Torres has the hat in question is made from the skin of a hare
happens to be similar to the texture of the fruit Inga edulis, or better known as: the guama . I guess the name of the hare was so complicated that we appeal to the Venezuelan translate.)
