Porter Hat

[Tallone]

Here is another item I picked up last weekend. Paid $16 for it.



The hat needed to be cleaned up a bit but it came out pretty nice, I think. Based on the brass buttons, I believe this hat is from the Seaboard Coast Line railroad. Prices on eBay for similar items are all over the place but I think I should be able to get at least $50 for it and maybe a lot more.

Thanks. It can be yours for the right price (I started an eBay listing for it last night).
