A little help, guys. I fished another fixer-upper out of the Bay last night. Berger of Hollywood. It's going to need a re-block to my size and a new sweat - possibly a bath as well. Searching around here I only found one reference to a "Berger of California" boater from the 1920s; however, the photo link is broken so I can't compare tags or anything. The seller states the felt is in good condition, but that's always hit or miss. It looks like a nice high straight crown and I think with a little effort will make a great hat. Picked it up for $35 with shipping, and budgeting $20 for a sweat from Bond. The following are a couple of the seller's pictures. Any ideas on dating this bad boy?
Thanks in advance!
