Another Whippet, also about 1953, stars in liner and maple leaf in sweatband with old mftg tags. I posted this hat on "What hat you wearing today", thinking it was a late 40's to early 50's hat.

A 1940's Whippet I got recently and some of you may have seen for sale on eBay. The sweatband has issues but has been repaired enough by seller etc so that once you have it on, you don't notice anything. I wanted a for sure 40's Whippet to see if the felt differed from my early 50's Whippets. It might be a tad thicker. Considering Whippet prices in general and 40's Whippets specifically, the sweatband issue dropped the price on this hat down to a good price.
