P L A Y B O Y S on Parade!

[Short Balding Guy]

c.1940s (?) Does not have the original liner, and sweat is extremely fragile in spots. Hat is unreeded, and carries a rae edge. The stetson crest has the stars instead of the 50s leaf.
The felt color is a light olive green, with a grey/green ribbon & bow. This is the first ******* I've handled, and i think it is a nice start.

Justin your new ******* is a grand colored felt. Olive - very cool find. Edge and ribbon are question marks. Regardless wear the hat, it looks great.

Best, Eric -

Justin's post reminds me that I would like to share my new unlined vtg.Stetson ******* in brown. The light weight felt is magnificent. A true pleasure to wear.

That's a beautiful *******, Eric. I like the narrow ribbon!

I've also been enjoying my unlined *******, ca. 50's. It's a good hat for this change in seasons. I don't understand why Hatco never really resurrected this hat in a proper fashion. I assume it's a trademark issue?

Thanks sir. The ribbon is unique for my ******* hat rack. The ribbon treatment is similar to a vtg. Royal De Luxe Stetson Stratoliner I have. Pics below for reference.

A more normal ribbon treatment is like the pic of the blue or silverbelly *******s below.

Mine all have the standard one inch ribbon like the others you posted. I've never seen one with the Royal Deluxe ribbon until now. I like it!

Outstanding Justin. I agree with Doug about that profile view. It definitely has a "story" waiting to be told.

Very nice Rick. I have never seen "Long Oval" embossed in a sweat before. Super cool!

honestly, if i keep it, it'll probably get a replacement sweat. dont want to chance this one.. it fits as a 7 1/8, and fits me perfectly

Color somewhat resembles the "college" hat to the right on the ad

I wonder if you can tell me the spec's on this *******, like the open crown height, height as creased, brim width, etc.? I love how this one looks.

Gorgeous *******, Anthony. Is that a gold foil size tag, meaning 1940's production?

Saw this on Facebook today. Wonderful hat, as usual. Is the sweat bow color (blue?) a feature of the older hats? Most everyone I see is white.
