The time has come to reduce my collection of hard won hats. I will try posting here before going out on eBay.


I’ve tried to set prices at a fair market value. All the hats I’m listing are in very good to excellent shape. All are high quality, buttery soft, high beaver content unless otherwise noted. I wear a standard 7 3/8. Some hats may be 7 1/4 stretched. I will describe the fit relative to my head.

This Dobbs has exceptionally fine felt. As good as any of my finer hats. It also has an unusual ribbon treatment on the brim. The blue ribbon needs replacing and the hat is worthy of the effort. There is a light touch of mothing under the brim (see photo with shops name). It is very shallow and small, noticeable only to us hat snobs. Overall, a very good hat. See photos for details. Brim 2 3/4”

Asking $75. Buyer pays shipping. No international.

Thats a beauty Eric . Did you have several Hats on eBay that ended this evening ? A few end tomorrow ? I've been watching several by the same seller .

 

[EricH]

Wasn't me. As of yet I haven't sold any fedoras on eBay. Gotta say it is painful to try to determine what to sell. I have a lot of unicorns including a prefedora Mossant from 1907. That one which feels like it's made of kitten fur will never be for sale.

I don't blame you , I've never sold anything period that I recall , but the time is quickly approaching , I have to do something . You've got some great Hats Eric .
