I'm paring down my hats to the ones I wear consistently. Here are two very nice hats looking for a nice home.

(1) Vintage Open Road. This one is missing a tag but it is a little loose on my 7 3/8 head. It may be a 7 1/2. It is in very good condition although the interior band has some spotting, I think from dry cleaning. Asking $125 plus shipping.

(2) Art Fawcett/Vintage Silhouettes. Art made this hat for me as a Stratoliner clone. I rebashed it to lower the crown, but it could be put right. Asking $200 plus shipping. I have the VS Box, which you are welcome to have, but that adds significantly to the shipping due to its weight and size.

I can't remember what Art called the color. I think something like Sand or Dune. It is a just a little beigier than Silverbelly, I think. Does anyone have Art's swatch list?

Open Road is sold. I have another, older one available in a different post.

The Fawcett Stratoliner is still available. Offers welcome. These hats deserve to be worn, not to sit in closets.

Price drop on the Vintage Silhouette - Art Fawcett Stratoliner. Now $175 plus shipping. Free shipping if you don't want the VS box.

Let me know if you want to see the hat bashed as a Strat.
