My First TWO Borsos for $80 (only one is an April Fools joke)
OK guys, little did I ever think that I'd snag TWO BArsalinos for well under $100 bucks, but I just did--opening bid each. I think the tan one should be acceptable with a new band;
Not sure what to do about the other one; I'll entertain suggestions (and offers!)

Woohoo got my first vintage lid in my size! I just won and paid for a disney twenty fedora in 7 3/4 long oval! As you can tell im very excited for this fine lid.
Woohoo, just won my first Vintage Stratoliner in my size on Ebay. I paid a pretty penny for it but hey, a Stratoliner in my size is rare and this one really intrigued me and I decided I wasn't gonna let it get away. Actually, it's a Stratoliner Medalist or Medalist Stratoliner, a lightweight unlined Stratoliner. I posted on the Vintage Stratoliner thread already but if anyone has any info on this hat (with the stratoliner airplane picture on the sweatband) please fill me in. I was told by a member here that it's probably an early 40's model.

Yes, it's an early example. Probably around 1941. Enjoy ...
That's a Strat worth getting excited about. I would agree with the early 1940s estimate. Looks to have a gold printed size tag. Not inexpensive, but a great catch. Congratulations, Terry.
There are a great many jumbo hats in play on eBay these days. It seems they come in waves. Enjoy your purchase!
