There is no size tag but we actually measure each hat 3 times to verify it’s true size. This is a size 7+ at 22-1/8 inches, a perfect 7-7 measures 22 inches and a 7-1/8 is 22-3/8 inches. We know there was no hat sizing standardization until 1970 with the Tilley hat sizing chart, still in use today. This could easily be stretched to a 7-1/8 though, that’s 22-3/8 inches. Dad says that the maximum stretch though. Size 7+ or 22-1/8 inches or 56.4 Length 12.7 inches Width 11-1/2 inches Height 5 inches at the tallest point Matching Grosgrain ribbon 1-3/4 inches Brim 2.7 inches, including bound edge He has collected for 60 something years now and it is time to sell them.

Dad has collected hats for a lifetime and there are 100s of them, on shelves, stacked in closets and spare bedrooms. We are slowly listing these special hats weekly. We stand behind the eBay garentee and have NEVER had and issue with returns. No smoking or Pets Thank you for looking NOTE: when we ship Dad’s hats out we use strong shipping boxes and each hat we ship is FULLY INSURED and we are no longer going to handle broken box insurance claims. We discovered that one buyer crushed their shipping box and asked for a hefty partial refund. The shipper sent us a picture of the box sitting at the front door and it was NOT CRUSHED? We also discovered that because we were NOT in possession of the box it was impossible for us to file the claim. So now and in the future all claims will be handled by the buyer of the hat or item we ship. Again we ALWAYS carefully pack each hat so it will not be crushed in a good strong shipping box. There are always some Bad Apples around who make everyone’s life impossible! It not fair to the rest of the GOOD FOLKS but it’s a fact of life these days! If you have any questions please write to us. Thank you for your understanding.
