I saw this listing and thought “Silver Oval? That’s a model I have not heard of before”

Then I saw this:

Looks like the rare “Ticket No“ style.

This hat sure doesn’t look like the “dimensions “ would indicate.

The circumference is even written on the back of the sweatband (23-1/8”). I would like to see the measuring tape that they used

Found a nice Knox hat box in a local shop this morning... It followed me home. Unfortunately it was empty lol. the interior shows a high level of engineering... today we just see foam

This Miller Bros. "Sterling Beaver" was a gift from @Michael R as well (thanks buddy!!). Not sure of the beaver content, but the gold "wallpaper" applied to the end of the box implies that it was their top-of-the-line hat. This is the second crease I've put in it and it shapes easily. The felt feels amazing.

As Michael found it:

Today:

Ran across another one of these (in 6-7/8 so I let it pass), but it did have a price tag in it … so now we know.

For anyone surfing Goodwill for project hats, Ive noticed lately that everything gets shipped Fed Ex... Personally Im tired of winning a $7.99 beater hat and then finding my only options are free instore pickup (IF I drive to Kansas City) or $35 fed ex shipping. About to the point that my future Goodwill shopping will be limited to physically shopping in the local stores... That and the last couple items I started getting nasty sounding "PAY NOW" messages if I hadnt paid in 12 hrs. This last one was won overnight and by 6am this morning there was already a "nasty-gram" wanting payment in my message box. I understand its supposed to go to a good cause but Geezzz! Theres my gripe for the day
