Fedora?

I am excited as I found a Dobbs felt hat in the original box and have a few questions.
The box has a ring to set the hat in but also had a plastic bag in the bottom. I read the whole thread on hats and rain and found about mosquito netting but should one store the felt hat in plastic bag?
I am trying to figure out if it is a childs so will put all the info I have.

Long oval tag inside hat with Dobbs New York stamped inside hat.
Label on box says Lot 4, Tuscany Style, Marina Color, Dim 1 3/4 (what is a dim?) the rim?

Then the 7 has a black line thru it.
As I know zip about hats I thought I could ask here. I picked it up for the graphics on the box and in honor of FL.
Thanks. Sandy

The plastic bag may have been used flat as a liner/buffer between the cardboard ring and the hat (saves it from acid in the cardboard). Sounds like a size 7 with a 1 3/4 brim (stingy brim). Measure the circumference of the sweatband from the inside with a cloth measuring tape, s/b 56 cm or 21 7/8ths in.

Looks like 21.50 inside.(maybe I missed the 7/8 and could be instead of the .50) So should I put the hat in the plastic bag to protect from acid on the cardboard. Is this a childs hat? Looks small. [huh]
Thank you for your help. I appreciate it.

Not a child's, but if you're looking to sell it....it's my size.
