TAGS: Madcaps, New York Paris

CONDITION: I see a single faint stain about 1/2" diameter on the white straw in the front of the hat, down near where the crown meets the brim - see close-up. There is a pattern of small crush marks on the velvet brim in the front of the hat that is noticeable only from certain angles and does not represent any sort of hole. Depending on your head size, the hat might need small combs attached to anchor it to your hair.
