    Going Atomic With Dalton

    As it's reported the Dalton Hat Company was sold in 1953, those made after that date were likely made with the rights to the name only. The trail goes cold after 1953, unfortunately. The design of CR's hat screams 60s to me, so it is most likely a Dalton in name only. The logos certainly seem...

    Going Atomic With Dalton

    In the case of the one I posted, no determination is needed. It's a labelled Dalton through and through. What's on the label behind the sweat, if there is one?

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    RIP to the late, great Willie Mays, a favorite growing up and one of the most exciting players I've ever seen. Ninety-three is some pretty good innings. The very first Big League game I ever saw was at Crosley Field on September 29, 1968 - Giants vs. Reds. Below I've posted the box score. I...

    Knox Boater Hat Mystery

    That one is going to be a toughie as it has non-traditional tagging since it's a straw and not a felt hat. Although the type of debossing on the sweatband points to an earlier era (at least pre-1950). Others may have the knowledge to pinpoint more clues as to era, but for starters, you can...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Several years ago, a generous FLer offered to send a Dalton box to me for the cost of shipping. I of course accepted the offer. Around the same time, he sold a Whippet on eBay for a very tidy sum. A day or so later, he contacted me and said, "Jim, please look in the box I sent you when you...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    My guess is it was more of a special order than a "custom." The customer was probably able to order from a menu of options.

    The Disney Diner

    Well, little buddy, the first link takes you directly to a post indicating the Mr. Disney logo was introduced around 1947. Had you followed that link, you would have seen that. The second link takes you directly to an authoritative page that gives you an extensive history of Disney hats. If...

    Agreed. I was the happy recipient of a hat that didn't fit @DonR in January. I really like these old Marathons, and this one's very nice.
