Then over this past weekend I ran accross this awesome rare hat, with felt like butter!!
The wonderfiul red and white blocking tag and orange re-order tags present! It is mid 40's! HOWEVER.....it is a size 7:(.....so trade bait!:rolleyes:;)
Oh, well, at least I have had the opportunity to own, hold and feel one!:rolleyes:;)
The ad is from 1946......:) Do YOU look your best!?!?

Of note:
I have the same colored Flagship that has the same ribbon but has an embroidered liner, as does Moehawk. I also have a Flagship with this one’s liner and sweatband that does not have the petersham ribbon. It seems they were available in different configurations, maybe age dependent.
Personally, i like the scalloped ribbon.
Gorgeous hat by the way M Hatman!!

I have two with embroidered liners. One of them came with a Petersham ribbon.

You look good in homburgs, Max. Your new hat looks pristine, and I knew once you asked for a photo of the liner you would be adding it to your collection. Buler has been listing several nice hats at reasonable prices.

Yes, he has. I have bought some others from him by PMs. He has many excellent hats.
