Fantastic find... great bump!
Indeed! Thanks, Josh!!
Josh, Great find!
Josh, this is a great find. I was watching them on the Bay and hoped they would go to a fellow Lounger. Perhaps the ones that were not as numerous were used in hats in a store in the 1920s!SUPER RARE (probably even rarer than a Hawes hat) Hawes Von Gal Hat Ticket Lot
I bought this lot of NOS Hawes Von Gal hat tickets which also came with three original advertising stencils. There are about 65 tickets in all with sizes 6 1/2 - 7 5/8 represented. Interesting though, there are ton of tickets from 6 7/8 - 7 3/8, but only a few smaller than 6 7/8 and only a few larger than 7 3/8.

Very nice Alan! Great find! I really like the riveted vents.Where have all the Hawes hats gone? Here is one... stiff hat, estimated 1910-1915. Very fine condition. Union made in Danbury, CT.
Alan, Great find! How flexible is the straw?
Alan, Very interesting! I have a couple hats with similar straw but all have stiff brims and crowns. Again -> Great Find!
Also some how I missed the Stiff Felt. It's a real beauty!
