The Bowler or Derby Hat

[Who me?]

Hello guys and gals.
Still looking for a bowler in my size, 7 3/8 LO. Good luck, haha.
But, once again found a nice looking hat, bowler for my wife. Size 6 3/4. The hat world is her oyster.
Stetson Paris 1900, with vents. We both thought the side vents were cool looking.
It’s for her birthday coming up on the 20th. She doesn’t know I bought it.
Not good at dating hats yet, but I’m learning.
Maurice L Rothschild & Co opened in 1906 and closed shop around 1970. That’s about all I know. Tags under the sweat, but no lot number. I still don’t know what the little tag, with the 1050 number is refer to.
Can’t wait to find one for myself one day.

From what I understand the “Paris 1900” was used from then until 1914/1915 when Stetson won another medal.

Nice derby!
