Here’s another angle. The other looks more heritage fawn to me, this one more tawny...That's Tawny Fawn? I would never have guessed because the color in that photo looks nothing like my Tawny Fawn Fed IV. On the other hand, we're having a discussion in the I love the Fed IV!! thread about the various ways hat colors photograph, so what do I know?
Oh, I was serious. Mine were crushed from having to fold them all in a suitcase, and I steamed and brushed them, conditioned the sweatbands, stretched some a little...

I would love to go to the hat shop that sold this hat. If this is an example, I would have to wear a drool bib. Very nice Daniele.This hat arrived new long after it was produced in France.
It does not mention the name of the producer, but I believe it was made by the company that was created in the 70s, bringing together all the various hat producers, now in crisis. The execution is excellent and the high-class felt.
A. Meer Concorde feutre impermeable. Size 60. Made in France for a closed shop in Strasbourg, I think it was made by Mossant for the style show
Medium felt in grey/pale blue with contrasting ribbon in deep blue
The proportions are: trimmed brim at 5 cm. crown at 10.5 cm. and ribbon is 4 cm.
The basting stitches are still present on the ribbon
It is brend new. New-old stock came from the "A. Meer" field in Strasbourg
It it good to re-visit these hats. Love the detail shots of this museum piece.Royal Stetson Bantam

Classy felt!Hardeman Mainliner. It was one of Moon's.

Nice Max. The well dressed guy on the sweat is also present on my Hardeman Homburg. Must have been a advertising gimmick for them during the era. Since they closed for good in the early 1950s, yours and mine are probably contemporary and late 1940s.Hardeman Mainliner. It was one of Moon's.

I just cleaned the sweat in mine with saddle soap. "Jabón de Calabaza", we call it in Spanish, recommended by my assistant. You can see the well-dressed guy a lot better now.
Very nice,especially like the felt.Hardeman Mainliner. It was one of Moon's.

This hat was just delivered. @BobHufford and I both thought this would be in the Beaver brand family, and we were right. I was happy to see the label from the manufacturer to the store where it was sold. The Thoroughbred box indicates the color as Maple Grizzly. The liner and sweat have the store name, and best of all a bucking horse liner!
Just have to get the chicken off of it, get a proper band and crease.
