Today's lid of choice is this Stetson Bantam I recently acquired. I tried my best to capture the Dove Gray color with a Bluish-Green grossgrain ribbon hatband and brim binding but I'm not convinced my efforts did this hat justice. Once again I'm amazed to find one of these old survivors that looks to have hardly been worn. Hope y'all have a good 'un !

The day down here started out rainy, so I gave myself permission to wear a sturdy felt that would not be bothered by a few drops. This Royal Stetson did the trip for me this morning. I know it's fifties era from the back bow (I would doubt the 20's), but I am not the Stetson expert many of you are. If you know the exact model and time-frame, please feel free to comment. Thanks.
