New Hat Day at the office on Monday! Steel Gannon, possibly the first one made in California. 62 CM, 7 3/4, 5 1/2" shaped crown with a 2 3/4 mild flange brim. The headband is the "mushroom" one offered and is very soft. This is my 2nd Gannon and it is a fine piece of hat! Very happy customer. Felt is thinner than the whiskey diamond crown I had made a little over a year ago. Thanks again Michael!
That’s a beautiful hat man. Y’all keep giving me more and more reasons to get a Gannon.

Very light - slightly bluish grey felt
Silver and maroon two tone ribbon treatment
Size 7
2 1/2 inch brim with bound edge and Triple Concentric Stitching
Crown 5 inches as bashed

The felt on this is unusual... Very thin.. very light weight.. extremely moldable. Just a beautiful unique hat!

Very nice derby. You have the knack for finding great ones!

J. Hückel´s Söhne "Elastic", measures 58cm, possibly later 1920s early 1930s. The sweatband bow was missing so I installed a new one. I couldn't find a paper label. Possible modifications were made because there was a felt strip applied to the back side of the felt at the front edge level (most likely) for cushioning.
