Hi Everyone, This is a modern opera hat that I purchased to take to the prom back in high school, around 1993/4. It really has never been worn, only used as more of a prop a couple times, but it does look so cool with tails, gloves and a walking stick. It is made in the USA but I do not remember the manufacturer, only that I paid over $200, which was very expensive for me at the time. I also remember that I bought it at Top Hatters in San Leandro, CA. The crown is 5 inches high and the brim is just over 1 3/4 wide, the machanism works perfectly and the box is included. The quality is not as fine as you will find in a vintage item however it is the best you will find in a modern made opera hat. A quick search reveals this hat now sells for $300+ Offered at $150.00 plus shipping. I prefer payment via PayPal and will entertain offers on this item.

I was the one lucky enough to get this lovely hat. It arrived very well protected, very quickly. The hat is in perfect condition as advertised. This was one very smooth transaction. Thanks, Sprfino. I can't wait to wear it.:eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
