1900s/1910s Wicks & Greenman

1900s Wicks & Greenman upbrim fedora/lords hat

The ribbon has the "frayed bow" which was common on hats of the era.

The sweatband has a similar texture to the earlier Stetson "Fray" sweatbands, which seem to have a crazy amount of life to them.

A little info on W&G: "January, 1904, Wicks entered the retail clothing business. For this purpose he formed a partnership with George H. Greenman, of Johnstown, New York, and they continued successfully in that business for five years under the firm name of Wicks & Greenman, and at the end of that period sold out to The Talbot Company of Boston"
