I had tossed out a $13 bid for this one and forgot about it. It ended with only my bid and it didn't meet reserve (it is a bit mothed). They reached out and asked if I could go to $14. I said "OK".
Oh dang.. “a whole dollar more??? You’re really twisting my arm here…. Well OK.. you drive a hard bargain!”I had tossed out a $13 bid for this one and forgot about it.

Been taking it slowly with the hats for a bit, but a few lottery hats I couldn't resist. Sizes unknown. Paid less than a fiver a piece on average. Should be fun.

Thanks, Randy. That's why I went for them. We'll see what shows up!Interesting selection, Stefan.
You succeeded.I enjoy all the hats posted on TFL and I long to have examples of many of those I see in my ever-growing collection. But, I must admit that Eric @Short Balding Guy and Rick @quikrick and Bill @Bill Hughes are the three individuals who give me most of my hat and color ideas and inspiration. This one is no different. Thanks guys. I may make you all jealous with this one.

Hat roulette again ...
The optimo creased Panama (?) looks interesting. No idea what hat is under it or the sizes of anything. I'm just going to take the three straws as I don't need the leather hats or the ladies' hats.

Nice! Good catch. Curious about that one, Joe.
Cool finds, Bob. Pity about the sweatband on the second one, but that can be replaced. Works of art and a dying art at that. Best get and enjoy them while we still can.

Thanks Stefan… yes I am very interested to see this one In comparison to the Willoughby I got a couple years back. That one has a non reeded sweat but appears more modern. This one looks like it has a reeded sweat… but the imprint gives me the impression it’s a bit older. Whatever the case.. something tells me you won’t appreciate the color.Nice! Good catch.
