Congrats Brent! It still won't fit me either. Now I have two 7-3/8 Whippets to sell ... hope the market can handle the influx!

Akubra Campdraft, Bluegrass Green. It was in Queensland, Australia a week ago today, but current whereabouts are unknown. Maybe in a container in the middle of the Pacific.
There's this website I lurk on that talked me into it....

With all these Whippets floating around in my size, it seems almost criminal that I don’t have one!

Should find out in the next day or so. I did not realize until after it shipped but he was just in the next town over. I Would have offered to pick it up. I think first time that has happened to me.
I was thinking it might make a great Florida hat… looks like it’s already been here.. so we shall see.

Congrats, Joe! That’s one of those grail hats that rarely come up and often sell for eye watering prices.

Thanks Brent. I did not expect to be in the running on it at all… was really just watching it for fun. I was out and about and saw it was ending just threw in a quick “I’d kick myself if I didn’t” kinda bid and got lucky.

I'm trying not to buy hats (no, really). I don't need any more silver-belly OR style hats for example. I keep telling myself to only buy something I don't already have and really want. One of those on the want list for some time has been a brown bowler. This one popped up and was close to my size (I do have a few hats in this 7-3/8 LO size that I can wear). I paid more than I wanted to, but how often do these show up? Not as old as I had hoped (mid-50s would be my guess). Hoping it is a keeper ... and that it is truly a bowler (the auction house said that the crown was not soft/shapable).

Nice Bob… fingers crossed it fits.
I am trying to do the same… but special hats do make it past the defenses.

Well, I can’t say that anymore. Fed IV is on the way. Seller entertained my offer on a three-hat deal, so I might have another goodie or two to boot.
