barrowjh said:JTL, I have a shorter version of that same box, and it is my favorite box. I am emotionally moved every time I read that ancient dialect, and wonder how it was pronounced (American Manufacture). There is a hat box for every hat in my collection (fur felts and straws, not for caps), but none are particularly noteworthy except for this - a CK box:
Most of the time when I visit antique stores I come home with a hat box, only on one occasion did I find a hat, and it is a beater. I have maybe a half-dozen nice boxes that need decent hats in them yet . . .
Here is a pic including that 'American Manufacture' Stetson box, with the cinnamon Sovereign w/mode edge sitting on it that I won from Rilico on OFAS for $137 a while back.

This is one of my favorites:
Here's one that's purely functional:
This is the seller's pic from an old auction. By the time this hat arrived, the box was demolished.
This steel tube contained the 100ish year old Montecristi:
And this big (hold three hats) Knox box:
