Canadave, The Johnnyphi auction, check out the Merchants forum.

Panama, I'm pretty familiar with the 34D being a Marine designation. I've got about 4 years worth tooling around in one. Semper Fi !

Because I don't deal on ebay, thought I'd try here. looking for size 7-3/8. Would like at least a 2-1/2" brim. Other than that, I pretty open (of course price might be an issue). Yes, I'm watching the auction, but was hoping I might come up with more of a every day type hat here. Thanks.

Tango Yankee, Just outside of Lancaster.

Well, if you come across something in 7-3/8 that might want to make a move to south central Ohio give me a shout. You may very well lay claim to being the provider of my "First" if you decide you might want to sell and I can afford. Now, hows that for incentive?

I sure will, what time will they be posted?

Thanks.

Checked for the model number of the Philco, it's a 48-1263 code 121. If anyone knows the history of this model like if it's a bargin basement model or what, pass it on, it would be interesting. Thanks

I've got my Dad's old Philco. It's a console type radio with a door that pulls out to get to the record player. I'll get the model number tonight and list it. I remember the family sitting around the Philco before we got a tv. The radio still works, takes about 5-10 to warm up and away she...

He was one "Squared Away" type to get that kind of duty. Now, I on the other hand, well, thats another story for another day. The only other outfit I was with was HMM-162 out of New River, NC.
