Finished with an off-white crown, forest green brim, and matching snapback closure.
History & Context:
While Guy Harvey is best known for his own marine wildlife art, the Guy Harvey brand also licensed work from other respected wildlife artists during the late 1980s and 1990s, particularly for outdoor and sporting apparel. Al Agnew, a highly regarded American wildlife artist, was known for his realistic depictions of North American game animals, including whitetail deer, elk, and waterfowl.
During this period, wildlife art hats like this were widely sold through major outdoor retailers, including The Sports Authority, which is confirmed here by the original retail hang tag. These hats were popular among hunters, outdoorsmen, and collectors, combining functional headwear with fine-art style embroidery.
This example appears new old stock, retaining its original Sports Authority tag. Structured crown with a flat brim and adjustable snapback.
