These hats are very similar, and both in excellent condition with original boxes.

Beautiful Dobbs 20 Guild Edge with buttery soft felt. The VVL stands for "Very Very Light" and refers to the extremely fine felt very pliable, and suitable for warmer weather. The Guild Edge, also known as Cavanagh Edge was a high end edge treatment where the edge was thickened during the felting process creating a nice stiffened rounded brim edge without the seam of a welted edge. This one is in excellent shape. It came to me in what I presume is it's original box uncreased in an open crown configuration. There is a faint crease from a center dent, but it will quickly and easily take on any shape or crease you like with a little steam and the gentle persuasion of your fingers. For the photos I quickly cold creased it into a diamond crease. From Washer Bros. Fort Worth Texas

Fit:
Sized 7 1/8, it measures 22 1/4" in circumference.
Crown 5 1/4"
Brim 2 3/8"

If they are only a little too small, I can easily put a little stretch on them for you. Although people say you can go up to 2 sizes up I generally err on the side of caution with vintage hats, and only go 1 size up max.
