This one looks promising! Hope it works out

I couldn't resist taking a shot at this - advertised as Stetson but really a bit of a crapshoot.....

Auction ended last night.

Anyone familiar with the store "Brodt" or the location?

Also, what are your bets - black, or dark blue? I'm thinking black. Brim is reported as 2.5", which is just right for me.

Open crowned black Homburg! Pristine condition and vintage box. Great auction win, Pilgrim.

My guess would be that "Stetson" is just a key word that the seller put in the title so the item would show up in searches. It looks like a good hat though, and the price was right.

Let us know what it looks like when it arrives. (Oh, and my money's on black.)

I have one hat by Brodt's, and a borsalino sold by them, I did have another borsalino sold by them, but I sold it. They sold very nice hats. They went out of business years and years ago

I think you made a good choice. Let's see some pictures when you get it.

you HAD a Brodt's.....

Looks like a great price.. I have to learn how to shop for a hat on E-bay.

I still have one...

The big decision once I get it will be (if it's a homburg) whether to flatten the brim or not. It would sure make a dandy fedora!

Any plans to relic it?
