For sale, a lovely felt trilby hat by Battersby. In the early to mid 20th century Battersby were one of the leading British hat manufacturers shipping hats from their factory in Stockport all over the world. This particular hat was made by them for Greenacres department store in Durban, South Africa. The hat comes in a lovely rich mossy green colour. The inner head band is leather. There are a couple of marks and tiny holes to the interior lining. The feather declaration is looking a little tired due to the age of the item but still adds a nice flash of colour. The hat has an inner circumference measurement of approximately 54cm which makes it a size 6 3/4 or small. A great opportunity to pick up a lovely vintage hat in good condition with an interesting history from one of the great British hat manufacturers.

Vintage Item Statement

All of the items that we sell are vintage or antique. Whilst we strive to source and sell quality pre-loved items, some of them will show signs of use that are consistent with their vintage ages - An item from the 1960’s will now be over half a century old and will very rarely be in the same condition as a new item of similar design specifications. Signs of use may include slight marking, scratching, creasing and / or general wear. We check all items thoroughly before listing and aim to reflect the condition of items as accurately as possible in our descriptions and photographs. Very occasionally during the packaging stage, we may notice an imperfection that we were not initially aware of and which was not mentioned in the description. In this instance, we will contact the buyer with further details and offering them the option of receiving a full and immediate refund.
