Very cool Lee waterbloc fedora in black. I believe this one is older, 40s 50s from the looks of it. Hat is in good wearable condition overall, with a couple small flaws: one, there is a small hole/abrasion (doesn't look like moth damage to me) on the back crown, and two, there is no feather anymore. Otherwise quite good shape. I don't believe this one ever came with a silk liner like other fedoras do. Anyways...please observe photos. Looks very nice. It's got nice curves to it and is bound at the edges for a nice whippet-esque look. Measurements provided in last couple of photos for additional sizing help. I would say fits *slightly* larger than it's official size.

She said he did not favor the brim being manipulated inside the Stetson Stratoliner box. The white Stetson liner is indeed rare, with a red tip and its Stetson logo showing stars in the shield. May possibly date to 1946-47 era.

Offered here is a STUNNINGLY gorgeous vintage Biltmore fur felt fedora in a rare color and an even rarer size! This hat is very large... tag size is 7 7/8 but it may be even a little larger in the realm of size 8. Either way, it's a very generous 7 7/8. Brim is 2 1/2". I just had the sweatband replaced as the original was corroded. Original band, pin, and tags included. This is a beautiful hat! Rest assured it will be properly packaged. FREE SHIPPING in the USA!!
