I'm sure I heard that hat say "ouch".
Wouldn't it be fun, a talking hat... although it might be a big headache.

Oh if our hats could talk, what stories they could tell!
How true...
I just hope a talking hat would also have the decency to shut up every once in a while... lol

The paper tag ("The Streamliner") answers a question I posed a while back about the countless hat style/model names seen in those great scans some of you have posted; the model names rarely appear embossed on the sweat. Perhaps makers other than Mallory identified their models with similar tags. That would explain why so few remain.

Sorry, fits like a glove.

+1, missed that one.
Mallory Nokabout, ca.1946
Mid-Late 1940s Mallory Nokabout. Post '46 Stetson takeover but retaining the old Mallory cloth size tag in 7-5/8. Likely produced immediately after the Stetson appropriation, utilizing remaining stocks of the Mallory cloth tags. Mellow, lightweight felt, with moderate, versatile proportions.
Crown: 4-3/4", as creased.
Ribbon: 13/16".
Brim: 2-1/2", with 1/8" binding.
Sweatband: 1-7/8".
Detail of cloth reinforced non-reeded sweatband.
