These rounded crown hats had a range of variations involving both the crown and brim. The brims were basically rounded, but they were done in a range of shapes, some more rounded thasn othes.
The brims were even more varied. The size of the brims varied. Here we are talking about small- and medium-sized brims. The wide-brimed we classify as a different type of hat became the brim becomes the dominant element. The brims were also done differently. Some had basically level brims with only a slight curve of the brim. Others had the brims curved upwards to varying degrees. Those that had the brims turned all the way up we call folded brim hats. We have, however, been unable to find precisely what these hats and the many variations were called at the time. The boy on the previous page had a rounded crown hat with an unturned brim. Another example is an unidentified Providence boy. We also notice a variety of hat bands, some with bows. Streamers do not seem very common.
