OK, I didn't really expect the seller to accept my lowball offer of $25 for a hat she once had listed for $69... but she did, surprised me. It is new but obviously somewhat shopworn.
When it arrives I have an old #52 block in my size waiting for it & I will attempt to help out that poor brim & ribbon w/ a little steam. Oh, and take that stupid pin out & toss it.
Who knows, I may have snagged a good deal, maybe I can make something of it. Thoughts or suggestions? More appropriate fot an TOD treatment or ROTLA?
Let me know how the reblock goes because I've been wanting to get my DP reblocked and I was told it wasn't worth it unless I do it myself, but I don't have a block or flange.
I would suggest to you what I suggest to anyone trying to get a good Indy look out of a Dorfman: Don't attempt the Raiders bash. Go for the Temple of Doom look. The hat will handle that bash much better and you will be much happier with it.
