Here’s a 1940s version of the Flagship model that came with a cheesy 15/16 petersham ribbon on it and which I dutifully removed and swapped out for a vintage 1 1/2 contrasting grosgrain ribbon. I don’t know why they would have called this the “flagship” model and then put a cheesy Petersham doll ribbon on it?
I was instinctively drawn to a wider ribbon look when I saw how great the ribbon looked on the tall rakish crown of the hat. I feel that the Copper colored ribbon really accents the color of the felt now in a new way or should I saw resto-mod as some refer to those things vintage and modern.
Mint Flagship model 7 3/8 with unreeded sweat, embroidered liner. Triple stitched underwelt brim edge. No flaws.
Hope you guys like it.

It looks great, the ribbon colour works so well. Are you keeping this bad boy for yourself?
