WTB 1920s STYLE Fedora in 7 1/2

[gunnarthefeisty]

Hi,
looking for a more narrow brim fedora that would fit a 1920s look. Attached are some family photos and catalog pages showing roughly what I'm looking for- though I don't wish for a Homburg.

I'm a size 7 1/2. I really don't care if this hat was made in the 1970s, yesterday, or anything, so long as it has 'that look'.
Thanks folks!

In the advert you posted there are a great many different style hats shown. Are you saying you would be OK with any of the hats on the page?

Well, yes, they are soft hats with a crown that can be re-shaped and a brim that will curl up slightly or snap down is desired.

If you look more closely you will see differences. Look at the crowns, some are straight sided and more full while others have a pronounced taper to them. I am a custom hatter and looking at the pictures I would not know which hat to make for you. They are blocked on different profile, different footprint blocks. What brim width would you prefer? How tall the crown?
