Hello everyone,

Today I'm selling an absolutely gorgeous 1930's Stetson Standard quality. I have two Standard Qualities in my collection and this one doesn't quite fit me. The felt is perfect on this hat. The bow is elongated on the back end which is something I haven't seen on many Standard Qualities. The only flaw is some of the sweatband stitching has come undone which is VERY common on these old un-reeded sweatbands. The pictures really speak for themselves on how wonderful this hat is.

Crown:5 5/8 tall
Brim: 2 1/4

I'm asking $75 Shipped to anywhere in the CONUS. I am also willing to accept offers.

Lets put it this way, my head is about 22 inches around and this is a bit snug. I would say the circumference of the hat is about 21 7/8ish. However, I am more of a long oval, so if your head is rounder, it might work just fine.

Mine is 22 inches, too. Would you say it's still wearable for you?

Its pretty snug. I would say it would need some sort of stretch. I don't usually stretch vintage hats, so I couldn't tell you if it would rip the rest of the sweatband stitching.

Thanks. I'd better stay away from it, then. :( Don't want to ruin a beauty like that.
