Sadly having to sell a few vintage hats again as we need the extra cash badly.
This Resistol is at least early 1960 as the original owner showed receipt from the hat being sent to the factory for a refurbish. The only issue on this it seems something is going on the pictures will show it. Not sure but I think some pouncing on the area would bring the hat to all the way looking new, as this hat has less then two hours wear time. The original owner did not wear it, was in a box all this time until we picked it up. Hat brim is 2 3/4 and the crown as bashed is just shy of 5 inches. The odd part of this hat, there was a light powder on the entire hat when first purchased and the hat appeared to be just like the day it was made...but I used a hat brush on it and then the front area of the hat looked as it does right now. I can't afford to send it to a hatter so we just kept it. It has been worn by Daniel one time to the Casino for two hours.
Price is $130.00 shipped anywhere Conus.
