That is so beautiful! And it suits you very well! Congratulations! If you don't mind, could you tell us the particulars (dimensions, weight and finish of felt, etc.)? Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

Thank you.

This hat is made with the infamous Mallory felt, the color is coffeetone, the brim is 1 3/4" and it weight 86gr you can find other photos in the Art Fawcett VS hall of fame thread.

Show and Tell time. I've posted these before, but not in this thread.


This is my first Vintage Silhouette hat. Silver belly beaver fur felt, high crown, 1930's style:

This is my most recent acquisition. I wanted a hat like Howard Hughes wore when he flew his Spruce Goose flying boat. This one is chocolate beaver fur felt, with a lower crown more typical of the 1940's.

Better take that fact into consideration when you size the hat. Hair vs. no hair can make a size difference. Be sure to mention this to Art!
