Info from Knox experts wanted

[Stoney]

Hey guys, I've just won the bid on this black Knox on, you know where.

I've never had any Knox hats , but I'm guesing its late fifties , more likely early sixties, from the style.

Can anyone give me a better idea of what I have here?

Thanks in advance

Can you get a picture of the sweatband? That'll help.

Nice looking hat Stoney. I was looking at this one but it wouldn't fit.
Enjoy!

I'd also appreciate it if a Knox expert could take a look at this hat that I won a few weeks ago. Detailed photographs are included in that thread. Anything you may know about it would be fantastic. Thanks!

Guys,

Thanks for the responses. I don't have any more pictures just yet, but will post them as soon as the hat arrives. This may take a while since I'm heading to Charleston to do a shipboard network installation at the end if next week.


Dumbjaw,

Did anyone mention what the 66 on the reorder tag was for. It may be the year it was made. Other than that, I would guess it was made about the same time as this one, early sixties maybe, You need some Knox experts to look it over,
Sorry I'm not one.


P.S. Dinerman,

I was joking about the peacock feather.

Please delete this thread for me.

The hat is question has been returned since it had a severely worn area in the felt.

Thank you
