Gorgious Stetson Bob!!

Tremendous hat.
That’s what I was thinking. Very unusual especially for something in this period. It’s similar to the swanky stuff you start seeing in the 1960s.Nice one Bob. You ever see that sorta print/texture embossed in a liner before? Very cool
There's something about these old hats that's just so attractive. A beauty!

Yeah, that liner embossing is the first time I have seen that, and I really like a long hair fedora.
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Ross. I don’t recall seeing a liner like this before.
Wow, that’s a beauty -- love that liner. Nice find Bob!

Couldn’t get the pics to load, but if anyone’s ever had/has it, it’d be Justin!
A hat friend texted me with photos sent to him by the owner of the hat below, my friend asking my help to date it. I'm posting it because it's a nice early Stetson and I don't know if it will otherwise ever appear in public. It's a Stetson 4X Beaver and looks like it has a velour finish. I guesstimate it's from the first half of the 1930's or late 20's.
I have no idea, Bob, but possibly so. I wasn't told who actually owned the hat at the time. But if you thought you saw this hat, you probably did, because there can't be 2 of these for sale. All I know is the owner was said to be asking $350 for it. PS- My friend said this morning that they were outbid on that hat, so that sounds like maybe Goodwill.Nice! Didn’t that just sell on Goodwill?
