In the first three decades of the 20th century, the brim widths varied a lot. During the 30s many were shorter (2" - 2-1/2"), but you will also find hats with wider brims. During the 40s wider brims got popular, and we see a lot of 2-1/2" - 2-3/4".
As with other fashion fads, the "rules" were never bullet proof. Just like today a lot of people didn't follow fashion rules.
I've even heard, that places exist on the web, where weird, stubborn old men meet to discuss, show and wear ancient fashion objects. I'm told that these morons run around in their parents and grand parents hats without any respect of contemporary fashion and habits! Nothing less than Appaling!!!
