Vintage 1940s Dobbs Fedora Hat | Golden Coach Dobbs Fedora Hat | Charcoal Fedora Hat | Golden Coach Side Pin | Dobbs

The Dobbs Charcoal Fedora Hat is part of Dobbs' Golden Coach collection - the highest quality of felt offered by Dobbs. A product of fine American craftsmanship, the Jet features a short (i.e. "stingy") brim, classic pinch crown, 20-ligne hat band and side bow with the traditional side pin. It appears to have been barely worn if that. So if you looking for an impressive Fedora then this one is for you. This is for the Hat only... Not the box.

While the company featured Dobbs’ name, it was almost certainly the brainchild of John Cavanagh and Robert A. Holmes. Cavanagh usually took the credit, but considering the integral role Holmes played in the company’s marketing, and that the entire idea of Dobbs & Co. was built around a marketing scheme, Holmes should probably be equally credited.[27] Dobbs & Co. served several purposes at once for C&K. First, it gave them a retail outlet of their own in New York City

The new Dobbs Fifth Avenue store was an integral part of this plan, coupled with the mass merchandising campaign in New York City, and in any city that had a Dobbs agency. Dobbs Fifth Avenue was designed to “establish the Dobbs hat in the consciousness of the well-dressed New Yorker and all that Fifth Avenue means to the outside world…to impress the dealers throughout the country with this acceptance by these fashion dictators, and… to demonstrate to these dealers a set of radically different hat merchandising methods
