WTF!
I have the same Whippet on a shelf behind me in 7 1/4. It started out just like that one.... WOW... just wow!
If only I hadn't shaped it and worn it.
Boys... It's time to liquidate the stock.

to arrive in the mail, at 1/6th the cost of that, and I got another hat thrown in with it as an added bonus.
Then again, It's not a Stetson Whippet, it only looks the part.
Don't you know that you can't judge a book by it's cover? (only by a word printed on its liner).

Wegener
I won this very nice 50s Wegener for 10 EURO (supposedly 56cm). This style Wegener is rare regardless of size so I took a chance. If it turns out to be a 56cm I will put it up for sale.

Just won this.
I hope none of you fought me over it:

Otherwise, hats will roll (as I wanted it for £20!)...

Adam Homburg 7 5/8
Remember this?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330439904738&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
Well it showed up today and is HUGE - Tagged 7 5/8 (not 7 as listed) and is 24" inner circumference. Has the large United Hatters Caps & Milliners Intl Union tag behind the sweatband so we know its post-1934
If there is any interest in this let me know before I send it back to the seller - Also, the seller did not send the original box shown in the auction photos.

I placed a bid on that one too. I am looking forward to seeing more details. It looks like it was specially made by Habig for the shop.

Very nice! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap Looking forward to detailed photos.
One of the better ebay questions I've seen - from a live auction, for a hat with a cav edge:
Q: The brim width....2 and 11/16ths? I'm sorry, but that doesn't work out to anything I can comprehend. If I got this hat, I'd need the brim to be pretty close to 3" all the way around, so i could do a dimensional cut on it to make it 2.75" in the front and back and 2.25" on the sides....is there enough brim to do that? Also...can you tell me what the open crown measurement is on the hat? Thanks! Christian

What's to comprehend? It's 2 5/8 and then add another 1/16 to that. Guy must have failed shop class.
