Meyers Blue Hand-Painted Sombrero C. 1936 DallasTX Bluebonnet souvenir.

Most of these pieces of Texas touristware wereoriginally sold in San Antonio & other popular Texas tourist destinations. I believe this piece dates to the 1930\'s.

Since this is faintly marked for Dallas, goodchance this was a souvenir from the 1936 Texas Centennial Celebration whichtook place at Fair Park. I believe the silver tag reads as follows: Souvenir of Dallas, Texas.

Thedetailing has the look of a piece possibly painted by Agnes Meyers -- sorry, I don\'t know how to positively attribute but it looks right to me.

Dimensions:4-5/8” long x 4” wide x 3.25” tall

Unpacked weight: 5.2 Oz.

Condition:Very good giftable condition. One mentionable issues: 1) one small paint loss flea bite on left rim (see photo #8) and 2) underside, two spots of light paint loss where item was moved around on flat surface commiserate with age and use (see last 5 photos). I feel roughness on right side rim, but I see it is overpainted – meaning manufacturing flaw. Paint intact with good color and without scratches or erosion. No other chips, flakes, breaks, mends, repairs, cracks, hairlines, blemishes, or mentionable boo-boo\'s.
