Bookends
I've lately gotten into vintage bookends. There's lots of variety and prices are reasonable. Anyone else got a similar bug?- PhilS

FS:7 3/8 Panama Bob Optimo
The Optimo is in my view the most tropical of summer hat styles. The Panama Bob Optimo is the best-price-for-quality straw hat around. I don't think he makes the Optimo anymore. I can't remember what I paid for this hat. It is the medium-fine quality, made in USA, as I recall -- the fino one...- PhilS

FS: 7 3/8 Vingage Open Road with Art Fawcett Makeover
This is a VERY vintage Open Road that had been worn by generations of cowboys, or whatever, and needed a cleaning and new band. Art cleaned it for me, put on a new ribbon, and added a new interior band. He didn't do much with the liner, which is just sort of hanging there. I think this is a hell...- PhilS

FS: Vintage Open Road (7 3/8 - 7 1/2) and Art Fawcett Stratoliner (7 3/8 LO)
I'm paring down my hats to the ones I wear consistently. Here are two very nice hats looking for a nice home. (1) Vintage Open Road. This one is missing a tag but it is a little loose on my 7 3/8 head. It may be a 7 1/2. It is in very good condition although the interior band has some spotting...- PhilS

FS: Price Drop - Art Fawcett Vintage Silhouttes 7 3/8 LO
My original post has met with a collective yawn. I guess I should have let everyone beat me up for listing it at $250, if only to generate some interest. Now $225 plus shipping. It kills me to give up on a hat when it fits, but I've had this one over two years and I have worn it exactly once...- PhilS

FS: High Quality OR Clone - 7 1/2 LO
Here is a high quality OR clone from Faulhaber's Store for Men, Battle Creek Michigan. It's got a union label under the leather band. The printed lining label is faded; it appears to say Beaverbrook. I do seem to recall seeing that name somewhere but my recent internet searches didn't turn up...- PhilS

SOLD: Green Whippet 7 1/2
The whippet is sold. Thanks to all for their interest. ----- Very nice Whippet in hard-to-find color and size. Some spots under the front brim (see pics) which I am pretty sure can be removed and are, in any case, not visible when wearing the hat. Nice condition otherwise. Asking $200 plus...- PhilS

FS: Black Borsalino 7 3/8
This is an extremely fine hat - easily the finest I own, and I have several pretty good hats - but I just don't look good in it. It's sitting gathering dust on my shelf and also needs to be shaped a little. It originally came with a black band. I had Art put a brick band on it. I paid...- PhilS

Vintage Italian Montevarchi Hat on Ebay - 7 3/8

CLOSED OUT - Hat Boxes Available for an Honor Donation if Picked Up in New York City
I have a bunch of hat boxes that have been sitting in my office for several years. They are not worth enough to ship, IMHO. If anyone wants them, they can have them for a cup of coffee, if they'll pick them up from my office. (40th and 6th, NYC). [/IMG]- PhilS

Need to Shed Some Hats
I have more hats than I can wear and want to free up some shelf space and pay for a new camera purchase. I haven't been paying attention to the forum or the bay for quite some time. Would I be better off posting in the classifieds here, or on ebay? I'm not all that concerned about maximizing my...- PhilS

For Sale: Pristine 7 1/2 Long Oval Cavanagh Edge Sinatra
This is a 7 1/2 Long Oval Sinatra Style Cavanagh Edge in wonderful condition. The band under the label actually says XLO, although it is not as capacious as the Stetson I just listed. This hat screams "Quality" and if it fit I wouldn't be selling it even though I don't like 2" brims. 5 1/2"...- PhilS

For Sale - Pristine 40s Royal Deluxe Stetson 7 1/2 LONG OVAL
I posted this a while back, the guy who said he wanted it never claimed it. This is a pristine, pretty much like new 1940s Brown Royal Stetson Deluxe 7 1/2 Long Oval. Too big for me or I'd never let it go. The photos are picking up a gold tinge that isn't true to color. Asking $110 plus...- PhilS

"Wool Felt"
I recently won a couple of ebay auctions for hats described as "wool felt". I ignored the description because I figured there was no way the hats were actually wool -- one was a Stetson Royal Deluxe and the other was a Dobbs, both likely late 40's, and both from high-end department stores...
