Put the Bott on eBay this evening. I'm terrible at posting links, but it's not hard to find, it's the only Bott in town. I'm closer to a 7 7/8, so this one is just a bit snug, and I don't want to stretch such a rare item. Reminds me a little of the Last Man Standing hat. Smaller brim, 2 1/4", but a nice 5 1/2" crown with a beautiful 2" ribbon. A few very faint moth divots that escaped the seller's notice, and one small ink stain on the underbrim. Excellent hat overall, sweat and liner are in great condition, double-stitched overwelted brim. Not an especially roomy Long Oval, so probably just right for a regular 7 3/4. Several threads here with this hat mentioned, so I'll stop the hard sell. Here's some photos, thanks for looking. Frank
