This hat needs more applause, Terry!! Your Custom Cross Bash (CCB) ROCKS!!
Thanks, Charlie. I really appreciate that. Love your Stephen L. Stetson. That Whippetish style is one of my favorites. The Stephen L. Stetsons aren't so easy to come by, from my experience. I see a few of them from time to time, but not so very often.

Thank you for your compliments of the last days

Thank you Mike
The brim is 5 cm (2 inches) and was very common in EU hats in those days.
You see the difference in the fat crown of that era and the more low crown and increase of the brim later (in EU hats)
You live in a country (Austria) where there was an excellent production of dress hats and in the catalog of the heyday you will find many elegant hats with no so wide brim.
