Yes you described the same hat, it seems. I have never seen one before, but I do know they use to make the tall top hats back in the 1800s this way seen in very old pictures. Go figure.

I have been collecting hats for a long time. I started well before the internet was invented. I recently have had an urge to...- felt hat xyz
