This was a nice score I received today. A little surprised no one else bid against me... VERY nice hat. Will try to post some pics this weekend.
Under Item Specifics it said 7 1/8, and no other measurements are provided, such as brim width. No pictures of the interior, either? Sounds like you got lucky. :)

Anyone know how to turn off Ebay's recommendations? They seem to be new listings related to previously-viewed items.
After viewing Alan's "too much information" link, I got a series of bimbos with hats showing up when I opened Ebay.

You didn't cause the grief - Ebay caused it after I clicked on your link.

So - any ideas how to disable this feature in Ebay? At least Amazon lets one turn off recommendations.

Amazing how targeted advertising is these days. Somehow, ads that appear on my iPad have magically morphed from French to Spanish ever since I crossed the border. Kinda spooky.

Thanks... I like it too. The picture was taken in front of our apartment building in the mid 1950s. The cap was added at a later time.

NO! Say it ain't so, Alan... I am devastated by the notion (now) that it wasn't original. I have always been impressed, mind you, about how perfectly well the beanie fits now, and THEN. I KNEW (or always thought) your l'il keppie had to have grown since then, but never considered such Photoshop chicanery. Thanks for "coming clean" on this. ;)

Here's a style I don't have, yet could see wearing...

The special & whippet were mine. I am still irked at the single bidder, when it had over 35 watchers. Safe to say I gave those away, but I guess that is what happens when you listen to others, and lot them, instead of listing individually. Just wanted to keep the same store thing going... oh well.
