Western, anyone?

That edge binding is something. Beautiful interior on that hat as well.

+2, I think I’ve seen Alan refer to it as whip stitch for the binding, only seen it on a handful of others.

This handsome lad also is sporting a whip stitch brim hat. All good lil’ buckaroos who cared about being in vogue did the whip stitch.

Great ad! Is the full brochure posted somewhere? Don’t believe I’ve seen it yet.

Edward Borein was a fine artist. They used his art more than once.

Thanks to @carouselvic’s generosity i might have just found out the name of my black Nutria Quality hat. A most favorite of mine.
“The Dakota”.
Thank you Vic, your posts always inform and never cease to amaze.

Thanks Vic! I’m thinking maybe a teens or early 20’s catalog? The lack of oversized/10 gallons has me assuming closer to the turn of the 1900’s.

Here's some fresh pics of my favorite black hat that I got from Vic!



VS refurbished. Had no sweat, but what is almost assuredly a Stetson size tag. Pretty sure this is a Columbia. I hadn't seen this Stetson catalog before, only retailer listings.

Good job & great hats, both. From the greatest era of Western hats & so rare today.

the 1224 address on the booklet would make the date 1913 or later

My Resistol Fifteen with whip stitching:

Sadly, it turned out to be a 7 3/8 and not a 7 5/8.
