Some that were recently auctioned.

I guess it counts as a box. Saw at an antique shop today.

From a recent auction (it sold for $50 -- I had spaced it out and missed it).

Looking for Hat Boxes?

I've been combing the internet and found these at Amazon in packs of 3 @ $13.33 each. They work great and are stackable.

Brim Deformation in Storage?
Do you have hats with a soft brim that flatten out during storage? A "brim riser" raises the brim up from its storage surface and allows it to tilt/fall down if desired. Formed out of pool noodle quartered long ways, cut to desired length and then glued together to form a circle just larger than the hat band.

As this thread's purpose is to showcase vintage hatboxes from the Golden Era, perhaps you might find this thread more appropriate.

1930s Royal Stetson boater box? It’s shallow (not cut down) at 5”.
