Vtg Open Road STETSON Straw Uniform HAT 7 1/8 GREEN w Leather Chin Strap scout For Sale

Nice older Open Road style Stetson. I believe the material is called straw but I have seen it referred to as hemp. Good leather band with attached 3 piece chin strap. There is a hole in the front that is intended for, and I imagine at one time held, a badge of some sort. It might have been a Scout leaders hat but the green color leads me to think it might have been US Forest Service, Park Service or maybe a Warden\'s hat. It is size 7 1/8 and I measured the inside circumference at about 22 1/8\". The rise of the \"dome\" is about 4 1/2\" and the brim is 2 1/2\" all the way around. The interior leather band is in good condition and lightly soiled. There is an impressed round mark on one side of the band that I can\'t make out. Overall, the hat is in very nice condition with no tears, dents or cuts. The color might be faded a bit but I do not know how dark the green was originally. Lots of photos should help you determine.
A note on sizing: I am selling this hat as a collectible. But, if someone wants to wear it - it is MARKED size 7 1/8 and the inside circumference is about 22 1/8\". The hat is not flexible. If you are a size bigger than 7 1/8 it won\'t fit. If you are a size 7 1/8 it might not fit. Please measure your head before offerding because once purchased, it is yours.I ship only in the U.S.
Buyer to pay actual Economy shipping.
I ship within 1 day of payment barring any crazy weather. When possible I combine items to save on shipping. PLEASE pay or contact me within 2 days of purchase. If not, I do file Non Paying buyer reports with . That is the only way I can get my commission back if I am not paid.A couple of other notes if you\'d like to read them: Our home is smoke free and pet free. That said, it doesn\'t mean that the items I sell have never had a passing relationship with some sort of odor. If I notice it I will state it in the description. If you can smell someone in Wyoming light a cigarette while you are driving east across Tennessee, you might notice an odor I don\'t. (I have actually had someone ask if I could certify that the box, tape and packing material I use were odor free (I can\'t).)I do the best I can to honestly describe what I sell. HOWEVER, I am not an expert on most things - my wife will happily attest to that fact - so if you have questions, please ask. I will be happy to answer questions to the best of my ability.
