I have my dad's fedora from the Harris-Polk Hat Co.
It is a "Clipper" color Worth Maker, I believe.
The tag in the hat band says Worth, Standard Quality, De Luxe.
I assume it was purchased sometime in the 40's or 50's but I don't know exactly when.
Does anyone have any information about the history of this company and/or hat?

Welcome, Donald. Sounds like you have a hat with a lot of sentimental value and family history.

It’s always best if you can post photos of the entire hat, the liner, the size tag, markings on the sweatband, and any tags/labels hidden beneath the sweatband. Photos make a huge difference in identifying hats.
