7 5/8! I’m excited about this one. It will be my oldest Cavanagh.

Excellent! I have a black one, but I would really like another color. They don't come up often.

Great find, Brent. Appears to be an earlier one too.

Just won a 1950's Whippet. I placed a low bid, for a Whippet, and I am still surprised I won.
Its sweatband seems to have been replaced a long time ago.

P.S. I really like Robert's creases

Glad to see someone here got this. I didn't bid because of the brim width. But I was tempted.

 

[drmaxtejeda]

It is 2 3/8 inches. Barely enough for me.

I was watching that, and it's an interesting acquisition. That's an unusual reorder tag for a Stetson, and a shorter brim than Whippets normally have. I'll be interested to see more of it when you get it.

Sent directly from my mind to yours.

That it is, Jim. I have one in my 7X CB with the 3" brim but I d never seen one before. I think @moehawk told me he has a hat with one in it.

Just won this one. Stetson Twenty The Sovereign Gold Medal. 2 1/2 inch brim.
Gracias, Adrián, @Miamibruno!!

Nice, Max. It also gives you confidence buying from a known reputable seller.

I must have forgotten about those. They must have run out and had to go to the emergency pile!

How old is your 7X?

Key hole tag, LD liner with 3x6 dimensions. Probably late 50's-early 60's.

Yes. I tried to sing his praises on eBay, but it doesn't allow that many characters.

This falls under the “Items of Interest” clause:

It didn’t start out as the nicest Game Bird but it didn’t deserve this.

Wow! That brings back memories. I did the same thing to an old Resistol cowboy hat when I was a young hippie in the 70's. I thought it was pretty cool back then. Now...not so much.

No one can be held responsible for what they wore/did in the ‘70s. That’s the mulligan decade.

Whatever damage was done then you have made your amends with the Phoenix Hat Company.

I didn't know there was a "Serpentine" Knox. Wow. You learn something every day.
