Henry,
There are at least two licensed versions- a wool one and a fur felt one. The fur is better, but the crown is still short and is in the cheezy teardrop shape. You can however steam out the teardrop to make it a little better. Still, I would stay away from these. If you can't afford a Herbert Johnson, from what I hear the Indiana Miller at $100 is pretty close. You'll have to change the ribbon, though. Check out indygear.com for more info.
Cheers,
Abner
