I was given another Bailey western hat today from the 80s by a family member. I am working on doing a conversion on it, being that it was free and western hats don't suit me at all. The hat band was the most hideous thing I have ever seen, but one man's trash is another man's treasure. Therefore, I am giving it to whoever thinks they will use it. Just be the first to post that you want it and PM me your address.
Bellow is a picture of the hat band on the hat. I do not currently have a pic of it once it was taken off. It was tacked where the "bow" was and I just used a seam ripper to gently cut the tacking. It does not have a bow, just a piece of the same material that wraps around vertically where the two ends meet.
Reminder, this is just for the hat band, not the hat!!![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
