Knox Superfine?

I'm getting dizzy with these dates and history notes...

When was the golden era? Do you think that is a 1952 hat/receipt?

Aha. Thanks, I thought it was part of the date - it is the number for the sales Department.

Do you think the hat is late 40s, early ‘50s?

I'm not well versed on this style, my guess would be second half of the 1950s. Earlier than 1963 with the absence of zip codes.

I wonder what the compound interest on four cents would be from them to now.

What's the deal with Knox hats the just say "Knox custom". That's it, no more, no less.

I’m not sure what you’re asking. Is there something specific ? It’s always helpful to provide photos too.

Photo for clarification. Just says Knox custom.

Not premier, superfine, etc

Newer 60s - 70s hat. I imagine they don't bother with all the various designations anymore because they don't have those quality levels being made.

I would be surprised if that hat was not 100% fur felt. The dimensions, the black sweat band, the printing, it all looks like a relatively recent hat. I would guess 1960s or later. Sadly, the quality of most US made hats were in a serious decline during this time.

The proportions and shape are also not as popular around here as the better quality older hats, but that’s an aesthetic and completely up to you. What did you want to know about this hat?

I'm new to hats so just researching and learning. I should probably wait for an earlier twenty or similar.
