Vintage Stack Fedora

[Indy Magnoli]

I love this hat so much, that I just had to repost it here... it was given to me by a friend of mine a few months ago. It's certainly vintage but in brand new, un-worn condition! It has the wind trolley on it, and the other day I was tempted to use it. I unfastened it from itself and looked at my reflection as I looked to attach it to my person and discovered that it looked ridiculous... has anyone else actually used a wind trolley? I decided if the wind blew my hat off, I'd look a tad less silly chasing after it than wearing the trolley...

Kind regards,
Indy

How old is the hat and who was the maker??

This hat is a Stack. Judging from the shape of the crown, I'd guess it's not any newer than 1940s...

Kind regards,
Indy
