Then over this past weekend I ran accross this awesome rare hat, with felt like butter!!
The wonderfiul red and white blocking tag and orange re-order tags present! It is mid 40's! HOWEVER.....it is a size 7.....so trade bait!
Oh, well, at least I have had the opportunity to own, hold and feel one!
The ad is from 1946...... Do YOU look your best!?!?

Very nice! I’ve seen a few Flagships with petersham ribbon: was that original to the hat?

The one that @bond sold me had it. He changed it, though. I am glad he did

I’m not a fan of petersham either, but it makes me wonder if it was original to the model.

Of note:
I have the same colored Flagship that has the same ribbon but has an embroidered liner, as does Moehawk. I also have a Flagship with this one’s liner and sweatband that does not have the petersham ribbon. It seems they were available in different configurations, maybe age dependent.
Personally, i like the scalloped ribbon.
Gorgeous hat by the way M Hatman!!

I have two with embroidered liners. One of them came with a Petersham ribbon.

You look good in homburgs, Max. Your new hat looks pristine, and I knew once you asked for a photo of the liner you would be adding it to your collection. Buler has been listing several nice hats at reasonable prices.

He’s been at it for a long time. He’s one of those members that I’m always interested to hear what they have to say.

Any chance any of them are 7 5/8 or bigger? A guy can dream.
