Beautiful Penny's Marathon in size 7 1/4. Measures 22 3/4. Brim is 2 5/8. Color is a very attractive grey with silver ribbon set. Fancy pleated shark gill 1 1/8 grosgrain ribbon.
Liner is spotless and leather is solid.
This one is really sweet.
Asking 195.

Dang it. Think the sweat will stretch to 8" on a hat stretcher?

Harv, I am not a fan of stretching vintage hats, I don't recommend the risk as it's likely to rip the stitching at the seam or the sweat anywhere. Not worth it.

I think yours is earlier with a bigger brim.
Penney's (or Lee) made a good hat. Somebody's gonna get a good hat.
