    That's gorgeous! Our hats are very similar. Mine doesn't say " Mode Edge" on it anywhere but it has the mode edge. I wonder if they had a discrepancy with Cavanagh at some point?

    Thanks, Ant. I didn't know you had an Imperial. I should have figured you had one! The felt is great.... the brim width is most impressive. Love this hat.

    That's a wonderful hat, Justin. I see it was sold by the Marston Co. of San Diego. If you are ever in Balboa Park it is worth a visit to the Marston House. I'd wear that hat for a visit! https://www.balboapark.org/museums/marston-house

    That's very kind of you to say, Greg. It's a lot of fun putting a crease in a new old hat.... It's a little like sculpting! Haha. My Cavanagh came to me with some kind of telescoping crease/ porkpie look. I feel fortunate that Cavanagh used such outstanding felt in their hat making. It was...

    The Cavanagh Club

    That's a beautiful hat, Greg! Congrats. As to the dating of it. I got this from The Hatted Prof. website. "Cavanagh first put the words "Cavanagh Edge" at the front of the sweatband of their hats starting October 1, 1952." I would guess your was made around that time.
