1920s or older Emerson Special.
The felt is a brownish green with silver felt fibers. The reed is yarn, which is new to me.

New Emerson
It's in great shape originally purchased at the Grand Haberdashery in Fargo, ND - no reed - post 1934 union tag - guessing mid to late 1930s - shower proofed by Dryette? How do you shower proof a hat? Also, interesting edge treatment - photo of bottom of edge - newspaper ad from 1936 in local Fargo college paper.

Thanks, Jim. This one has a 2 5/8 inch brim and fairly high crown....4 1/2 inches at the front pinch. Looks more like a hat from the '30's to me. I think it's most likely early '50's tho.
