Willoughby camber style hat in black with a blue undertone. Canadian Beaver Fur in a size 57 with the bound brim at a smidge under 7 cm and the crown at 10,5cm at the center dent. Looks unworn. This one has me wondering who the maker was. Mossant used beaver fur but called it Castor Hudson on the sweatband. Because it is written in English it makes me think this one could perhaps have been made by the Wolthausen company in Brockville, who made the Canadian Stetsons as well. I don't have much luck with Willoughby. This was sold to me as a size 56, but it's certainly a solid size 57.

In the one picture I turned the brim down fedora style. You could wear it like that, but it has a very pronounced flange that way.

Bluebirds not your thing? 1940s not your thing? How about an older Humming Bird? Every man can appreciate a good hummer:

Don't like the Disney Diner? Then let's spend Twenty back at the Dobbs:

And here's the other half of the local find with the above Disney Twenty. A Cavanagh Forty:

Dear Jonathan, here are my choices in order of appearance. You can send them to the usual address, for the payment do not worry ... we are solvent
