Thanks Bowen. I have never owned a BRE before. Too hard to find & too rare to pass up even though it doesn't fit me. I just had to experience it & possibly safe it...who knows?

I know exactly what you are saying!!
I just bought a Siren Song Black Nutria for the same reason. I swore off more hats but those really really special ones...different story.
Humm...what size is yours?

Auerbach & Guettel's The Palace was open from 1888 into the 1960's. I believe one of the Auerbach's was big in early Kansas state politics also.

Somehow the seller was successful in getting a pic of this tag. I have not tried to roll out the sweat.

The original owner must have been Irish. I've never seen the Mc punched before.

I had one like yours that was a touch older and tan. Also a 7 1/8, it had shrunk a little and was just too small. Definitely nice felt and that brim treatment is hard to beat.
