Love it—thanks, Steve! Do you think this would have been made in Stockport? I have a cousin there who would love to hear it, if so.An excellent first English hat, David. Well worth falling off the wagon for.
The King referred to would be George VI who reigned from late 1936 to 1952. The shape and style of the hat definitely place it in the 1930s/40s era.
After his death Scott & Co were hatters to George VI's daughter and new queen, Elizabeth II.
Lock & Co took over Scott & Co in 1969.
Just some useless hat history for anyone interested
