I bought this a few years back from another lounger who had changed out the ribbon for a wide ribbon and it's just not getting enough use to keep on my hat rack. The ribbon is nicely done and tacked. There is no lining. Price is $90 shipped within the USA. If you want it shipped internationally send me a message. I'll discount $5 from total if paid with Paypal friends and family.

Size: 7 5/8 -- 61
Condition: Used

Can you compare the color to a known gray? Any idea on when a CD was offered in gray? Is the felt soft? How many tacks hold the ribbon & are there a lot of tacks thru the felt in the gills? If the ribbon was removed would it leave a line or lots of holes?

I think this might be the Glen gray. It's about mid way between moonstone and carbon grey. The felt feels the same stiffness as a newer federation iv or campdraft. It hasn't had a lot of use so is still close to the stiffness of a new one. I've attached a photo from the inside of the crown showing how the ribbon was tacked. If removed there might be some tiny holes but I doubt they'd be very noticable.
