FS VINTAGE STETSON OPEN ROAD ABSOLUTELY MINT 7 3/8 or 23 in

[EVEN-STEVEN]

Greetings Big-Headed Loungers!

Thinning out the herd again. This lid is in absolutely perfect condition and I really HATE to see it go. Check out the pix; it looks brand new. (I've worn it out of the house exactly ONCE!) The flawless felt is a stunning dove grey (or silverbelly) - very soft and pliable. It even has the requisite wind string! The leather sweat is clean and supple. You'll notice that the sweat is not stamped "The Open Road" but, for all intents and purposes this western-style Stetson fedora truly is an Open Road. (If you're a stickler for that moniker you should probably pass on this lid - but I guarantee you will be hard-pressed to find a size 7 3/8 in this kind of stunningly pristine condition.)

Brim is 2 1/2 inches and the crown (unbashed) is about 5 1/2 inches.

Better grab it early. If you want this kind of quality and in this condition you will have to get really lucky at an estate sale or an ebay Buy It Now or shell out $500 or more at Optimo in Chicago.

But this amazing specimen can be yours for $315, shipping included CONUS.

beautiful hat, been high up on my wish list for a while, but alas, the problem we all have from time to time, the inside of my pockets are white and not green.

It's a fantastic lid - I wish you had the green!

This came with the hat. I've got it in storage somewhere and am currently searching. I will send it to the buyer.
