Tawny Fawn Fed. Imperial Grade. Sturdy. Hardy. Robust. In another word, STIFF!

Sharp hat Bob! I think the Fed IV suits you rather well! :thumb::thumb:

Thanks for the great pics of the Tawny Fed, Bob. You did a great job creasing it (and accessorizing!).

Thanks for mentioning that. I agree the shape is more flattering. They're called Parade "Q" series and I've never heard of that name. Probably copies.

Passal of *******s

The black one is one of the oldest ******* types, vented crown and no stitched brim. The others are 50's.

All are pretty rough and from the same seller. May re-post after TLC rehab.

Bob that crease is great! I love that deep center dent and high side pinches!

+1 re the bash on the Fed IV.

I have a DelMonico Suaza Panama Fedora by Monterrey (sounds like a Salad) coming In... Used and Like new.
Does anyone have any experience or knowledge about this hat ?

 

[Rogera]

Yeah I wanna ******* myself.

I got this hat the other day at eBay. According to a very faded stamp, it is made in England for Marshall Fields, and is 60% Wool, 40% other. It has a moderately stained sweatband. I'm not sure when it's from.

The hat has no odor, but when I first got it, it smelled slightly of cologne/perfume.

The hat has a 1 7/8" brim. I quite like this hat. All I hope is that there is no ringworm in it.

The hat being worn.

Supertweed Showerproof.

The Marshall Fields stamp.

The feather.

Some stains.

A link to the hat on eBay. Here you can see the Marshall Fields stamp more clearly.

80% wool, 60% other?

That's 140% of hat! If you're worried about any sort of critters or fungi, just hit it with a disinfectant of some sort that you'd use on wool.

Wear it in good health RS.

Thanks!
