Wow, nice. Almost looks like Percy Edward Anderson's handiwork. Wouldn't surprise me if it was.

Dobbs Cross Country

Dobbs Cross Country box 30s era. Could it be for travel? It's light weight and very sturdy. The hat rolls easily and slides right in. Stands 11 inches.

Up on the top shelf in City Hatters Melbourne...

While back in Melbourne a couple of weeks back I paid a pilgrimage to the 100 year old City Hatters. Up on the top shelf I found this collection of Christy's boxes and a 1940's Fayrefield (which I'd photographed on a previous visit)...

Bought my first two hat boxes. They're generic, but only $15 for the pair.
