new Akubra Bushman
Bushman It's confusing. I thought the "Bushman" was an exclusive to David Morgan and copied the oldest of Akubra models. Australian websites sometimes list a Bushman, but I have yet to see a photo and/or specs that match the DM offering. -

Akubar Color Question
The Greys of Akubra I have a Fed IV in Carbon Grey -- really dark and to my taste. I think the Stylemaster is in the same or nearly dark grey. Wish that Squatter came with a black ribbon, though a change is easy enough. -

Dimensions of Bogart's Hat?
Keppler's hats Yes, Keppler orders hats from Beaver that aren't actually made of beaver, but all this -- and more -- would become clear should the Original Poster choose to do a search. -

Rex Harrison in My Fair Lady
Dressing Henry Higgins Professor Higgins would certainly dress to please himself. The costumer's mistake would be to provide a hat not of the period -- or just before the period of "Pygmalion". -

The OED defines and dates 'fedora'...
