Need feedback on Schilling hat
I was recently contacted by a guy who has a Curt Schilling game used Diamondbacks hat. He said that he received it directly from Curt himself after an Astros game in 2001 or 2002. The handwriting is consistent with other examples I've seen. My only concern is the size of the hat. Curt wore a 7 1/2 during his Phillies days and this hat is a size 7 1/4. I have yet to see any of his Diamondbacks or Red Sox hats so I don't have anything to compare it to.
If anyone can provide me with any additional information or feedback, I would really appreciate it as I would love to add this hat to my collection if it is legit.
Thanks in advance,
Scott

Re: Need feedback on Schilling hat
Scott......Schilling started out with the Orioles wearing a size 7 3/8 as evidenced by the one in my collection. Then the size increased through the years to 7 1/2.......this being common with most men as they get older anyway. So a true Schilling Diamondbacks hat should be around 7 1/2, but certainly not 7 1/4. That's too many hat sizes going the opposite direction.

Re: Need feedback on Schilling hat
I once owned a D-Backs Schilling gamer...I can't recall if it was 7 3/8 or 7 1/2, but I KNOW it wasn't 7 1/4.

Hunt Auctions have been auctioning off a lot of items from Schilling recently (All Star Game Auction & Monthly Internet) and I'd check to see what those hat sizes are.........
