OTHER THAN eBAY Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

Levy of Baltimore 'Air-Cool'. Super light-weight, I'm guessing 1930's or 1940's. If you toss it up in the air, it's so light it just kind of floats down.

Magnificent! Love these lightweight hats.

I found this in a lady's hat section - nothing but cheap straw and cloche.

I always check the ladies' hats in the thrifts. I've found a couple of Panamas, but this is a treasure!

As long as you restrict yourselves to the hat section, gents

Maybe.

Sterling (or Silver) Beaver sometimes refers to the use of the select fur from the center of a beaver belly that is used on $1000 hats from VS or $10,000 hats from Butch Dorer.

It could also just be a marketing name.

Must find it.

I just bought my first Art Fawcett. Sure looks pretty, doesn't it? Can't wait to get it.

A beauty! Did you commission it or buy a pre-made hat?

I bought it from a previous owner, a Lounger. It is 7 3/8, but as I am no longer constrained by something as mundane as hat sizes, thanks to Ignacio...[emoji57]

Maybe there's a Lounger in the area that can snag it for you.
