@m2roddog1 I’m not sure what you mean by your comment, but I’m not accepting anything less than asking. Price is firm, thanks though.

I am very interested but at that price there should be a receipt or documentation to verify what the felt is made from. Typically Colorado Mountain Hats are either all rabbit, 50% rabbit and 50% beaver or all beaver. without touching the felt it is hard to tell which it is but documentation is most important when one is seeking a premium price. The hat has a finish that is referred to a Grizzley fur finish. I can buy new rabbit fur hat 10X for under $300. New 50X hat for $400 +. 100X $700+ Thank

@jeffcasey273 Hello Jeff. I'll have to go and look at my pops place for paperwork/receipt, which I'm sure he has. I will try and get over there in the next week and check. Price is firm though. If you are interested in trying to go lower, I'm not interested at this time, but please do let me know either way. thanks.

@jeffcasey273 Are you in Colorado?

I lived in Colorado over 32 years. Had cabin near Fairplay where Colorado Mountain Hats are made. I own over 80 western hats, made many myself. The price depends on what the hat is made of. The price range i gave you are Staker Hats out of Utah for his hats are comparable. Most hat felts are made by Winchester in Tennessee or imported from Portugal Those are today costs not 5 or 10 years ago. I have paid as little as $50 for all beaver and as much as $500 for the best beaver belly fur used hats.

By the way I see you are in Broomfield. My wife and I lived in Central City for 25 years, some of it before gambling. When she retired from Colorado School of Mines I retired from Xcel Energy and we moved to southern Indiana. Do miss the mountains but not the crowds or the gambling.

And yes I am still interested provided the hat is beaver felt.

Oh nice, very familiar with all of it. The crowds are awful, can't wait to move away from here. I will be trying to get there this week to look for paperwork, thanks so much!

Hi Jeff. I'm unable to find the paperwork, my apologies. My pop passed away a few months ago and everything is a mess. If I ever find it, I'll let you know, thanks.

Thanks for trying. I am sorry for your loss. Without knowing exactly what felt was used it is hard to justify spending $400 dollars on a hat that may be rabbit and only worth $200. I just bought a handmade 100% beaver hat from fellow collector in Utah for $350 that was labeled as such. An experienced hat maker can usually tell by touch and appearance what the material is. If you find the paper work or decide to flex on the price I love to add this hat to my closet to use for cowboy reenacting.

I know you are firm on your price. I would like to make you a very generous for a hat made of unconfirmed material. I have bought 3 of the Colorado Mountain Hat Company that were of 2 of rabbit and a third of either rabbit beaver mix or all beaver. I paid for each of the hats between $70 to $175. I am going to go out on a limb and send you an offer.

@jeffcasey273 hi Jeff. After speaking with my stepmom and my sister, we all agreed it’s time to go ahead and let it go. I’ve accepted your offer and will go get it and get it wrapped up and sent to you. Please take care of it. Have a good evening.

I will thoroughly enjoy it. I have a small hat shop in my home to keep my and my friend's hats pristine. It will be well taken care of. Thank you and have a wonderful New Year.
