Here's one that's been around but still has plenty if life left in it.
Vintage Knox Twenty in size 7 1/2. Brim is 2 5/8. Ribbons have nice patina.
Felt is clean no stains , no mothing. ( if you want a liner I can make one up in silk or acetate for nominal charge)
Leather sweat shows wear but is firmly attached. This is a great older knox fur felt that is thicker than a strat and steams up nice with a good hand to it.
Asking 99.00

I was so very thankful to have been able to purchase this hat for my Husband. Just as he has learned a lot from being here on the lounge, so have I learned some things. You note that I steamed, got this hat to a nice smooth open crown, creased it to how my Husband wears his hats, and then worked on the brim to give it a more "flat" overall profile. Now this entire process was less than 40 minutes from start to finish.

I also can say, if you ever do purchase from "Bond", he sure does a great job of protecting the hat in how he packs it before shipping. We are looking forward to buying again from "Bond"...(thanks)
