That's a sweet find, Bill! The metal stamping is fantastic, and like Robert said....makes for a great winter scraper.Originally Posted by buler
Here is a Roswelle hat brush with scraper that I picked up recently. At least its my assumption that the curved end would be for scraping off residue from the felt.

I don't suppose you ever went back to purchase that early Roswell fedora did you??

I did go back and it wasn't there. Now I'm thinking maybe I already bought it.That's a sweet find, Bill! The metal stamping is fantastic, and like Robert said....makes for a great winter scraper.

Roswelle brown derby. Really nice hat. Great sweat leather and interesting fancy sweat bow. Taped rear seam and rolled edge. Josh will like the ribbon's bow work. Fabric embroidered size tag ala Mallory. And grommeted side vents.

Now that looks to be a working mans hat.
Cool side vent!

Swelle hat! Stylish bows and shape.
Way cool bowler Bill. Very nice sweatband bow.
The vent looks like someone dodged a bullet.

Like the bow work.........I LOVE THE BOW WORK!! That Roswelle is absolutely fantastic!! Great find, Bill!!! The hat has a wonderful crown shape and I love how flat the brim roll is. The sweatband has some really interesting detail and the side vents really make this hat a very special derby....Josh will like the ribbon's bow work.
