Description:
What a fantastic miniature top hat for the collector of miniature hats or accessories for men's dolls. It is made from papier mache and is painted black with a wide white band painted at the rim. The head opening is 1 7/16" from side to side and 1 3/4" front to back--this is the inside opening. The length of the brim from front to back is 3 1/4". Overall height is 2". This wonderful top hat is from c. 1875. It is pictured on a chinahead man that is approximately 13" high (the doll does not come with the hat). This is a rare and hard-to-find item for the advance collector. Minor paint rubs, otherwise in great condition.
