Knox twenty

[riccardo]

Hi to all,
I've bought a Knox twenty from ebay.
It look like a beautiful vintage hat,very soft and pliable.
It has a large black hat band, a pretty wind cord...i like it.
Anyone here could tell me something about it?
Thanks.
Riccardo.

Hi Rick!

You're going to have to give the guys some mosre information to work with. Can you post the EBAY link? If not what is written on the inside on the sweat band and the liner? Did you get the box? If so any info on it?

Ricardo , this is a nice hat . As you know , when originally sold it was for 20.00 . That was a lot of money back in the1940's .
As they say in Italian ,multo ben'e !!

$280 hat in todays dollars

A $20.00 hat in 1940 is a $280.00 hat today adjusted for inflation. Nice hat my friend.
