    A few hats up for auction...

    Hi all. I put a few up for auction yesterday from some recent trips to the antique shops and the like lately. My wife refers to it as "Hatiquing." Nothing too special. Well, the Mallory is, it's fantastic, but it's a small size. (cough, @Short Balding Guy, cough!) This Sears "Chief of...
