Now here's your classic Bogart Maltese Falcon Hat

[Matt Deckard]

JUMPIN' BUFFALOS!

That's fantastic! The shape is great.

That looks like one of my grey vintage Borsy, just in much better condition.

I usually throw any Ebay links down into the Classified section right off the bat, though since it is such a bogie, I'll leave it here in the hat section for a bit so it gets some looks.

In the future place these in the Classified section.

Howdy Michael,

Looks like we are neighbors. I live about an hour west of you. What part of Denver are you in?

Oh yeah, nice hat!

Tom,

I live in Arvada just northwest of Denver proper.

You live an hour west of me. Humm. That you would put you in a ski town. Frisco, DIllon, Silverthorne. Am I warm?

Matt,

Sorry about putting the ebay ref here. I didn't know there was a protcol. Now I do.

Make that a 1/2 hour NW. Not a ski town....unless you count Eldora.

What a beauty! One of you little-headed guys needs to be all over that.

 

[MKL]

price?

So what would you all think the hat would be worth? I realize this would be subjective, but a rough idea would be appreciated. It does look nice. You think it could be resized to a 7 1/8 without much problem?

Thanks.

7 1/8? No problem

I don't think it would be a problem to stretch this little beauty to 7 1/8.

What it's worth? Considering a new Borsalino can set you back by a couple C bills (or more) I say this one (being vintage and all) is definitely worth up to $80- $100.

I just spent $100 on an Akubra squater and I bet this one is much nice than the Akubra.

Now that's a nice lid!

 

[Dalexs]

Wow, that is a nice looking hat.
I might have to buy it just to have it. Its too bad you can't stretch it up 4 sizes...

 

[MK]

If it were only 7 3/8

 

[Wild Root]

Yes, it is a shame it's such a small size. Well, I know some one who would fit that!

MK, I know how much you love Bogie's hat, I wish it fit you too.

It would look so nice next to that Falcon of yours!

Root.
