Joao - great find but will you cope with that tiny brim?

That brim is fine with me. I wish it was a lil' bigger.

Man, that's a beautiful hat buddy! Really nice! I know that Stetson, at one time, used white size tags for their Long Oval sizes. Maybe that could be the reason for the white size tag in your Resistol...Maybe '70s vintage?

Thanks. I think I have a Stetson long oval but size tag was always black. Crown on this one is a bit stiff.
I didn't found a "dating resistol's from size tag" on TFL so I can only ask if someone knows when this hat was sold for $38.5.

Now I fished this one on the bay cheap for less than $70 with shipping. Was listed as tan but it's more of whiskey or my understanding of tan is wrong. Color on model ticket is "Puma". Nice color different from all others I have, was hunting for a whiskey.
Again 4 1/4" brim, 5" crown, 7 3/8, red sweatband bow (my first one). It have a price tag but can't fully read it... looks to be $38.

Needs brushing to remove dust.

I'm really liking the woven hatbands on the hats you've been acquiring lately--very distinctive!

Yup! GREAT hatband/felt colors, Joao.

Very nice, Joao. Never knew the color Puma existed. I like it!

Joao;
My guess is that it is from late 70's to no later than 1982.
The very height of the cowboy hat craze here.
When even the New York City people wore them.

I just got a new Mallory hat. This isn't really new but its new as in it's now in my possession. So yeah this hat is like my Dobbs but I believe it's older. Defiantly not a 60s hat. The logo is an older one. Most likely 50s. So yeah it has beautiful brown felt with a black band and the bow is on the back. I had to reshape the brim and it still isn't to my likings. I'm going to just raise the sides and back up more. The brim is 2 2/4". not sure the crown height. the liner isn't sown in it's sort free floating. Not how to fix that ,but sweet hat right?!

Thanks. I din't know it either. I do like the color. I think Resistol "invents" color names.

At first I wasn't very found of them but I think it's a thing that "grows" and now they are nice.

New York wearing cowboy hats? That would be something to be seen.
If that is true this hat is almost as old as me.

30s Adam

I picked up this Adam recently. Pretty sure it dates to the 30s. It has a 2 1/4" snap down brim with 1/4" grosgrain edging. The crown is approximately 5" (as shown with a center dent) and has a 1 3/4" grosgrain ribbon. Inside it has a sculpted silk liner and an unreeded leather sweatband with taped seam.

 

[ManofKent]

Whatever it's age - that's a lovely Adam.

Royal Stetson Deluxe Diplomat

Another recent acquisition. 2 1/2" brim with 1/2 overwelt with 4 rows of stitching; open crown is approx 5 1/2" with 1 3/4" grosgrain ribbon and wind trolley, Liner made of Rayon Satin liner of "Celanese Yarn."
