That one is actually a more recent vintage, probably somewhere from the '80s or '90s era. It would make a decent first western hat for someone who is a size 7, though. But I wouldn't give over the $40 starting bid price for it.(June 25, 2018 at 10:24 am)A Theist Wrote: I see what you got there. That's more along the lines of leather working. The hats I do are fur felts that are stretched over vintage hat blocks with the brims reflanged over a vintage wooden brim flange, although some I rework back into Westerns of different styles. With you being a size 7, though, you can find western hats like that really cheap on ebay. Not only hats like that, but some very nice vintage fur felt hats at a cheap price too. With your hat size there's a lot of really nice stuff. I'm a 7 1/4 - 7 3/8. Finding those sizes and upward can get pricey, and it's hard to find vintage fur felts in good condition in those sizes too. You're one of the lucky ones who can get some great bargains on really nice vintage hats.
