Free hats (pay for the shipping and my packaging)

[Chiliarches]

First - a 7-1/8 tan costume (?) hat altered from an original Stetson Royal DeLuxe...the brim was definitely cut down by an amateur, the ribbon looks like an amateur replacement, the sweatband has this odd gold stamping over the Stetson writing and there's a weird liner...oh yeah, and it's kind of dirty.

Nevertheless, it has a nice 30's vibe to it (I'm guessing it was for a gangster costume or something) and I will ship it to whoever wants it for the cost of shipping and my nominal cost of packaging.

Second - a mediocre stingy brim made by Larchmont, missing the sweatband. Also 7-1/8, though it's obviously bigger with the sweatband missing.

Lastly, this one - don't even know what to say about it. Size 7-3/8, good condition, just not the kind of hat most of us here like.

No takers, really?

It's a generous offer, but they're way too small for me. The first two would make good practice hats for a do-it-yourselfer . . .

 

[Suppoko]

Yeah it's really a great offer but they are too small or I would take them in an instant.

can you post a pic of the inside of the Stetson? And the sweatband "weird stamping"?

many thanks

The third one is my size, and has a nice Bing Crosby feel to it. I doubt the postage to Australia would make it worthwhile. Any idea of postage to here?

cheers

interested in the first one if you could email me on Ant0ni081@hotmail.com let me know the info maybe we can sort something out

How much would postage be on the second one to 57701?

Chiliarches, please clear your PM box!

I too, suffer from a huge watermelon.
But thank you for the generous gesture.

Gents,

I am in Illinois, zip code 60462. Assume the package is one pound or so.

Requested shots of the first hat below.

FYI, the stamping says "USA" and the liner says "Custom Made." There is another stamp I did not photograph that says "Hamburgers - Baltimore"

 

[Baron Kurtz]

My Lord, I will certainly take that light coloured hat off your hands. What a beaut!

PM sent …
