I understand that Silk Top Hats ceased being made in 1956 due to the closure of a factory in France that produced this special type of silk, making good examples increasingly scarce.

 

The Hat fits approx size 7½ - 7 5/8 head (marked for 7 5/8 on Lock & co receipt - see photo 7) and stands 5½” high with leather carrying box. The hole for your head is 8¼” at widest, 6 3/4” at narrowest & 24½” around inner circumference.

 

Exterior: The hat is in good condition, with a 1½” black material band around it, comes in leather carrying box.

 

Interior: Is silk lined & is in good condition with ED pinned on leather band. Inside the hat is marked “Lincoln Bennett & Co, Hatters, 162 Piccadilly, London.”

 

Would suit collector or Ascot racegoer alike providing more of a talking point than a modern reproduction!

 

This hat is in good overall condition & will make an investment now & for the future. (350)
