Justin, what is that block #?
either this hat has a devilish side or it is 664(?)Justin, what is that block #?
Thanks, & no pun was intended. I was thinking it had to be 666 or 664 or maybe 644. I couldn't find the list of blocks someone put together in the past.either this hat has a devilish side or it is 664(?)

and most importantly it bears that delicious 'Fray' sweatband. Beautiful example, Alan!This is the only other 1X nutria that I remember seeing - posted somewhere forward in this thread, I think. Shares many of the features of Justin's example above - silver store imprint, stub sweatband bow with round size sticker. Different block (322) and lower crown, dress hat felt weight and LOT3057 which I would guess makes it slightly earlier.
If you've got the spare change and a giant head, I would scoop up Justin's hat on eBay. It's a rare beauty.

The body cleaned up rather nice. Is that just with a steam and brush, or did you do more?
