you've graduated my friendThank you! That means a lot coming from you. I have been smitten with many of your finds. ;-)
Great Champ! The style, the perforated sweat and what looks like the use of ball point pen on the size label makes me think mid 1940's. I think ballpoint was first used widely in 1945.View attachment 76193 New vintage acquisition! A never worn Champ ventilated Featherweight Kasmir finish brim. In a Metal Blue with box from a local Antique shop.
Can somebody give me any info regarding possible decade based on the pictures?

with all due respect ... that Dobbs was some Carlo Rossi sangria compared to this ChampI tasted the wine with my vintage Dobbs Jet 707 acquisition a couple weeks back!
Wow, what a find! Congrats!:-D HA! My wife is already giving me grief over it! She doesn't understand that this hat at under $40 is a great thing!! :-D
BTW this person has four or 5 more Champs all in the same condition in similar boxes all in my size. I have to find a time to sneak back there! ;-)

Sweet! It is not a modern hat, I'm feeling safe in saying. 1950s would be a good guess. Love the details of this hat. Sweat, hat band, brim...yummy.
