I found the "Rosetta" hat box while I was working on my unsold inventory last week. This is the first time I've been able to verify the exact date of a particular hat from my collection.
Some of the Adam boxes have copyright dates printed along the base of the boxes, but I haven't really been able to match the boxes with particular hats, until now...
In the pictures below, I've posted photos of an Adam box that originally held 3 hats. The copyright date is 1947. You'll see the original markings from the manufacturer, along with the charcoal notes made by the staff at Hirsch's.
The final photos show the actual hat that was found in this box. It's a perfect match for the description on the side of the box.
I give you... The Rosetta Box:
