How abt some details, huh?

Rabbit fur felt, 7 1/8", goat leather sweatband. Hand stitched assembly (can't afford a good sewing machines). Crown height 6,4 inch, intended to make a tall bowler. Fits very comfortably. Anything else, ask away!...oh..made in Sweden

I like the way yout blocked the crown. Who manufactured the hat body?

This one is Winchester, TN. Love the feel and the weight of their felt.

Thanks. Winchester rabbit. What does Winchester call that color? Rust?

Where did you order it from, Karl? Hatsdirect doesn't have it in BGG. Is it the deluxe?

I'm 99% certain the Campdraft in Bluegrass Green is exclusive to Everything Australian; I don't think it's available in the Deluxe/Heritage Quality felt.

Correct ^ ^ ^

Thanks. I was starting to think that way after searching the web. After I hear about people having return issues with EA, I am not sure I will order from them. I am still thinking it over.

Unsure of age. I want to say 50s or older but I do not know much when it comes to non-American made hats.

Camel color, due to light it looks a bit darker.

Not a NEW hat. But a new find! Had showed my great-grandfathers Dobbs before. Found in a closet few years ago. Now recently discovered a photo of him actually wearing this same hat. William E. (Pop) Simonton always dressed to look his best. After retiring as a freight agent from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, this was probably the last hat he ever purchased. From Sterns Brothers Dept Store in Parkersburg, WV.

As usual, any clues to age or where it fit on the quality hierarchy are much appreciated.
