That hat is easily worth the asking price. I ain't sayin' a person couldn't find one like it for less money somewhere in this world, but in that condition and size, well, that would involve more than a bit of luck. The felt finish on that model is something special, as is the whip-stitiching on the brim edge and the "self" band. They just ain't making hats like this one anymore, not to my knowledge, anyway.

Length is 8 1/8, width is 6 5/8. Thanks for the positive remarks tonyb,. This hat is really something special and Iam glad that someone finally has said something about that. I also have the original box which I forgot to mention. It's a nice hard shell in very good condition.

I have always wanted one of those. I think that whip-stitch around the brim and band really sets that model off.

As someone that buys and sells alot of vintage hats I would like to add that this particular hat is rare, not to mention that the condition is flawless, just like it came out if a store new. Also It is going to be made available locally at a hat shop for the holidays , so if anyone is serious about buying I wouldn't wait on this one too long.
