Longley, Low & Alexander catalog

Robert interesting position of the bow on that one.

Had some vogue in the middle of the 1910-20 decade.

No, Alexander was just the name of an early partner for this Chicago manufacturer.

Thanks, sir...

Did the Longley Hat company go out of business with the death of Albert Longley? So about 1929/1930? I just received a Longley Soft hat that appears to be late 1920's/or very early 30's in styling and construction. I have never seen any ad from Longley past the late 20's.

I will try to post pics later.

Turned up another Longley soft hat. Liner says Super Quality and sweatband says Super Felt. I guess it's Super! Very nice salt and pepper heather. Lightweight hat with raw brim and very nice quality leather sweatband.
