I've been trying to thin out the amount of hats I have.Have stayed away from hunting for hats.This last month I gave away 3 hats,helping build up some good karma for me.Hoped to send some of that good karma to members that needed it...But I must have kept some for myself.Todays antique shop find.I think it's a old old.

Bought this hat on the internet for 5 euro's (shipping was more: 6,95). I don't know anything about the hat. Only that the crown hight is 12cm en the brim width is 7cm. Maybe it's wool, i don't know, but who cares for 5 euro's. According to the photo's i personally think it's a furfelt hat. But i liked the style and the colour of it and that's why i bought it. Which of the coulours is right (the first 3 pictures or the last one) we will see. Unfortunally the hat has no lining.

Usually the underbrim color is the true one, Marcel.

That's a fantastic find, Chuck. Congrats on that one are in order. I find that hats have the same character as homing pigeons: you let them fly out, but they always seem to come back (even if it's not the same pigeon).

This one used to be Alan's, and the first pictures are his. The seller I bought it from uncurled the brim. I will decide later if I want to put it back on

With the brim curl it's a special hat; why would anyone want to tinker with that to make another dime a dozen black hat?
My vote is on putting it back in, Max (and hope Ignacio gets it close enough to its former glory).
