Thanks Lefty and Billyspew.
Lefty, I have looked high and low for an other one like it but to no avail. I am not certain at all but I believe it is from the Thirties. It has a very short nap velour, high crown and the brim just over 2" and no liner, just the old style logo printed at the crowns...
I've just come back from Bruges. I brought 2 hats with brims 2-1/2" and crowns 5"+ and no one gave me the slightest look of disapproval or strangeness. I saw many men wearing hats with wider brims although all most all were wool or leather.
