Pure wool newsboy / golf / driving / Gatsby hat is retro gray heather with a unique stripe that looks like rows of tiny houndstooth (houndsteeth?). The stripes are black and a muted brown. There's a snap at the brim. Inside is quilted satin with a bit of fade. It has a Hatters Union label but they went from 1896 - 1983, so there's no help there as to dating. HOWEVER! The sweatband is vinyl, so that puts this anywhere from late 50s to late 60s. The quilted interior makes this a bit older too. Condition is fine (no moth holes! no smells) except for the "crazing" in the sweatband. This is not uncomfortable and the sweatband remains solid. 21 1/4" around inside sweatband.
