Two size 7 3/4 Vintage Stingy Brims: Dobbs and Resistol

[frussell]

Both are roughly the same measurements, 1 7/8" brim, 5 1/2" crown, both with nice 2" ribbons. No visible flaws or damage on either, both sweats are supple, all brand markings intact, and the liners are worn but not dirty or stained. Excellent condition as far as I can see. The Dobbs has an original price tag of 15.95, and is a beautiful olive green color with a black ribbon, and a Guild Edge. The Resistol Kitten Finish Mark III is black with a black ribbon with grey tail accent, and Resistol's version of a Cavanaugh edge. Both hats are monogram stamped WHF on the sweat in gold. Worth mentioning: neither appears to have ever been put in a sharp crease, so no old crease shadows. Photos below. I would like to get $95 shipped for the Resistol, and $85 shipped for the Dobbs. PayPal preferred, UPS shipping included. If you want both, I'd go $165 shipped. Thanks, Frank

Triple bump - I really don't want to send these to eBay, I'd rather see someone here enjoy them. Trades of 7 3/4 or larger also entertained. Thanks, Frank.

I'm thinking about it. Having a large melon makes buying vintage hats a chore.

I'm really tempted, but I think I may be a long oval. I'm not sure about stretching it.

 

[JONDAVHAR]

Frank, I'm going to pass at this time. Should have no trouble getting rid of them. Good luck!

 

[frussell]

I'll give these a few more days, and then reluctantly send them off to eBay, from whence they came. Frank

 

[frussell]

I'll take $10 off the buy them both price, then it's back to eBay Wed or Thurs. Thanks, Frank

Last day, last bump.

Gone to eBay.
