Hat #120 ~ Vintage 1940's/50's Fire Engine Red Wool Felt Brimmed Cloche w/Grosgrain Ribbon & Bow by Henry Pollack, New York

Vibrant red cloche with side bow!  This fire engine/Christmas red hat is in incredibly clean condition!  Being wool, one would expect some small 'flea bites' (moth holes) or deterioration, but there are none.  The only thing of note are some random thread stitches that appear to have secured the red grosgrain ribbon band on the exterior of the hat.  The manufacturer's stamp reads '100% Wool, Glenover, Henry Pollack, Inc. New York'.  Apparently, Henry Pollack first registered this trademark in New York in 1948.  I don't think that this hat is much 'younger' than that.  I would say end-of-the-1940's or early- to mid-1950's timeframe.  VERY clean.  This hat runs a bit smaller, so please see measurement below.
