DETAILS

Label:  New York Creations

Best fits:  average hat size (see measurements)

Circa:  1940s

Condition:  Overall good.  The hat shows some light wear, including a bit of discoloration on the gros grain ribbon and some very minor (hardly noticeable) discoloration of the straw (almost appears as thought the straw used was from slightly different dye batches.  But, as you can see from the photos, these issues aren't extremely noticeable when the hat is worn.  Priced accordingly.
