Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

[J.T.Marcus]

Good to know, how to interpret Punti sizes

This chart should help. I've bookmarked it. http://www.hatlife.com/headsize.php

 

[Dreispitz]

Ha! I was watching that hat too but didn't bid...

would have been a little too big for you, anyway. The description was misleading, but the 6 inside the sweatband was the givaway on the size. Iwill post more in the Homburg Nation or Borsalino Brotherhood, once it has arived.

Where did you find the 6? I was just going through the photos again but couldn't find it. Well, beautiful hat anyway, and at a good price, too. Congrats! :eusa_clap

I don't think it's actually from the '30s given the plastic on the liner, but still.

I asked the seller

Thought that much. I asked him for some more photos, but even in these pictures there I couldn't find anything regarding the size.

Stratoliner Clone?

Been looking for a Stratoliner clone, so maybe this will work:

OR

That 7 5/8 OR was a steal. Someone is lucky I'm off buying hats for awhile.

I was in but not near the sale price

 

[Lefty]

I was hoping no one would notice that one and I'd pick it up for under $100. Oh well. [huh] Congrats to the winner.

So, who made 100s? Here are the ones I've either seen or read about here:

Stetson
Resistol
Cavanagh
Knox
Dobbs

Any others?

In the Hunt

I was in the hunt on the Dobbs One Hundred as well. God bless the winner, he got a real beauty that probably would be at least $1,000 hat if it were made today.

Might have gotten myself a sleeper here...
