More on exact hat specs (for those interested)

OK, I just dimensionally cut the brim down on my Fed. (I'm very
happy with this hat by the way) Anyway, after I steamed and
shaped the brim to my liking, I realized that the brim seemed a
little large compared to my Herbert Johnson. I remembered
Patterson's letter in which Mr. Swales said the HJ specs were 2
7/8 inches front and back, and 2 3/4 on the sides.

So I says to myself, that's strange, because I cut the Federation
to the other (smaller) specs of 2 3/4" front and back, 2 5/8
for the sides, but the brim on the Fed seems bigger!

So i got the ol' handy measuring tape out and measured the
brim on my HJ Indy poet, and lo and behold, the brim is
only 2 5/8 inches front and back, and 2 1/2
inches on the sides!

So what's the correct dimensionally cut brim specs for the Indy
Raiders hat?

I guess I'll never know. Go figure.
