But it didn't sell. The auction was canceled due to "an error in the listing". Maybe he left out a zero? :lol:

Re: SF&D Engineer Hat

Still WAY overpriced. There may be a sucker, er, collector out there who'll drop $1K on it. Closer to $500 is more realistic. I've seen original conductor hats with badges go for that.

WANTED: Magic Kingdom Conductor badge

Thanks!

Thanks for keeping an eye out for them, BF! There's talk of putting on the Walt & Trains exhibition -- again -- and I'd like to include one of these among the artifacts. A reproduction is fine (as long as we label it as such), but a 3D printed version would look tacky.
