Here is a Beautiful LEE 1950s Beaver Fifteen (Black Label) DOBBS – Brown – Whippet Clone fedora with that wide brim and wide bound brim edge. The size is a Perfect 7-1/8. See pictures. With that Wide Bound Brim Edge, brim 2.6 inches and the Playboy style Grosgrain Ribbon at 1.1 inches. It’s just a beautiful sharp looking Fedora! If your looking at this, this was shaped years ago to look like the Indiana Jones “Raiders of the Lost Ark” type fedora. This was then stored away after the last movie. Read below, NO HAT BOX CURRENTLY IN THIS SALE! Look at the underside of the hat you can see there is no wear around the leather sweatband, look at where the hat attaches to the Beaver. That’s called the “Reed”. It has no wear to it, well nothing seen. Looks perfect! As my grandson did his final inspection, as you know we HIDE NOTHING!, he noticed that there was what looked like a weak spot on the sewn leather joint. So just to be 100% certain that that will never split Dad used a strip from an older Stetson leather sweatband and that Weldwood leather glue and reenforced that part. That is now the strongest part of the leather sweatband. See picture where it is lifted up by fingers. It’s perfect and will last more than a lifetime! We added picture 16 and we don’t think these are moth bites but a super tiny rub? It’s so tiny though that it’s hard to tell. Because of that LEE Liner Logo and that very thin plastic liner cover it’s easily dated to the very early 1950s. Both dad and a collector who has a hat relationship with dad both agreed to the dating of this great hat. NOTE: that hat box it was found in was in a 1950s LEE hat box. Another collector saw the hat box and he and Dad are negotiating for it. It will be sold by the time this is listed. SO NO HAT BOX! You are welcome to write to us if you’d like an older vintage hat box though. Dad does have a couple empty great ones. There’s that late 1950-1960s 6 sided boxes by Knox and there is a Dobbs also. Both have their hat holding insert sets and these will add to the cost of shipping.YOU MUST WRITE TO US BEFORE BUYING THE HAT THOUGH FIRST! So NO HAT BOX IS INCLUDED CURRENTLY! NOTE shipping outside the continental USA is without the hat box, it’s just expensive to ship we discovered but if you do want the hat box also you must write to us before buying the hat so we can edit the shipping dimensions and weight. This is a REAL LOOKER! With that beautiful matching brown grosgrain ribbon, wide bound brim edge. If you’d like a Coat Trolley string for this fedora Dad has these listed here on eBay. You must write to us though. This is NOT sewn onto the hat but could be by any decent tailor or the end can be trimmed off and used just as an adornment. It’s pretty easily done. This will add another $12, rather than the $20 that they sell for individually. You must write to add this to the great fedora hat. Dad has a few different color newer 1960s Coat Trolley strings that are listed here on eBay. They make great additions to any hat for that extra bit of styling. Write to us if you’d like to buy one. This one is only $12 but Dad still has a few more that are listed. This was LEE’s higher end styled fedora to compete with the Stetson Whippet fedora. This has nearly all the same dimensions! Slightly wider brim – 2.6 inches and a narrower Playboy Style Narrower Grosgrain Ribbon. The color is brown and the picture of the whole underside are the best representation of the actual color. We believe Stetson would have called this Chocolate Brown. We took out dad’s collection of 1950s Stetson Beaver hats: 3X, 7X Clear Beaver, Ten, Fifteen, Twenty and TwentyFive. This best matched up with the Beaver Fifteen. It’s more of a light-medium weight material beaver and very soft and pliable! The current shape was steamed into the hat. Pictures say much more about this great fedora! We took all angles and this is also part of the description. If you have any questions or need another particular photograph, please write to us. If you have any questions please write us. Ok now the particularsThere was an original underside Green Tag with the size “7” printed on it. But as always we actually measure each hat 3 times to verify its true size. This stated size”7”. But this measures to a an PERFECT 7-1/8 at 22-3/8 inches. These old vintage hat were manufactured at a time when there was NO hat size standardization. That was started in the 1970s and agreed upon to use the Tilley Hat Sizing Chart. Mostly still in use today. Color: Brown ( Stetson Chocolate Brown) Size 7-1/8 or 22-3/8 inches or 57 Length 13 inches Width 11.5 inches 4.6 Height inches, at the highest point Wide Brim width 2.6 inches, includes that wide bound brim Matching Grosgrain ribbon 1.1 inches wide THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL HAT! Everyone will turn heads for this hat! We Carefully packaged and ships through Fedex.Local pickup is always free. Ship with Fedex or USPS priority mail, whichever arrives quickest. Both costs a couple dollars more but they are very reliable and they do not crush or damage boxes, also much faster shipping. Please read our very excellent feedback. 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. We ask you to verify your hat size before you buy and we supply the maximum amount of pictures but if you need anything please write and ask. No Smoking – No PetsThank You 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.
