Just won this awesome early boater. I couldn't pass up the outstanding weave!

Interesting weave ...

 

[Lefty]

Nice

size 7 CB, cheap

 

[DJH]

Great deal. I paid a lot more for mine and that one has a better liner as well.

Oh, the StratoPin arrived safely - thanks!

Will depend on which hat the buyer actually gets... the photos are from two different hats, one nice, the other newer and not so nice.

Good eye, Alan.

I read the three posted questions on that 7X and not one person mentions the photo discrepancy about those two hats. Strange.

Gorgeous old straw, Josh. The color, weave, and patination are outstanding! :thumb:

Who beat me out of this one?

(Yeah I know I said I wasn't buying anymore hats...)

Wow, that was a great and rare hat, I wish you'd bid higher, would love to have seen some more pics here on The Lounge. Something like that I'd expect to bust $100 anyway.

That's a sweet looking Boater, very cool and unusual weave.

Josh nice boater I have one with a similar weave.

I asked the second question, see his answer, nothing strange about it.

Just saw the "where is the clear" and looked on to the next question. Not a biggie, vic. And it is indeed strange that you would leave mistakenly used photos up for the duration of the auction.

Wow, that is a work of art. If I had seen it I might have picked it up for sculptural display purposes.
Thanks so much for posting it.

Knew this one would shoot up there towards the end. Who all was bidding?

[alanfgag]

Not me, but that's a lovely hat and sweet deal.

Josh, your new boater is swell. Can't wait to see your pictures after you dust it off a bit.

I saw it. Looks like a great hat. I did not bid, though, I think I am going to pass on all non-Stetsons from now on.

 

[bowlerman]

Nice one! not a bad price for that kind of hat, as far as Ebay standards usually go. Too bad it's not actually a "derby/bowler;" I really like that slate blue-grey color.
