Vintage Peters Bros. Shady Oak Hat – Open Road styled hat in Silverbelly (more tan), lightweight felt (quality not marked – seems similar to my ‘50s Royal Stetson, maybe a little lighter weight). There is no size tag, but was sold to me as a 7-3/8 and fits like a small 3/8 or large 7-1/4. Bound brim is 2-1/2” wide and un-bashed crown is about 5” tall. Lining and sweatband are in very good condition – overall condition is very good. It does not appear to have been worn much, but does have a very small spot on the front of the crown (hard to see = but visible in photos 1 and 3) – have not tried to get the spot out. Vintage is unknown – my guess is 1960s to 1970s, but I am not that familiar with Peters Brothers hats (the current ones are over $300 – this is not what I would consider a $300 hat). A nice, quality vintage Open Road style hat – if I didn’t have similar ORs I would likely keep it. Asking $80.00 shipped in the U.S. I would also consider trades for vintage thin ribbons in 7-3/8 or 7-1/2. If you are interested or have any questions, please send me a PM or email (preferred) thru TFL.
