    Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns

    That’s an idea. Introducing adhesive to leather is always a concern to me. Curious to know how that might impact the longevity of the band. Depends upon the purpose/ end goal I suppose. Thank you for sharing that suggestion- I never thought of that.

    Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns

    Extra light weight Select Quality. No block tags on this beaut. Had to replace the sweatband as it was severely torn and frail. This is a hat I recently acquired and revived. 6.5” x 4.5”

    Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns

    Thank you gentlemen. I don't typically purchase hats that don't fit but I find it exciting to own a hat with TM's signature on the sweat & time period to match. I agree though Ross. Nice to see the TM brand & image staying consistent even for the junior models

    Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns

    Tom Mix Junior Stetson. Although it’s size 6 7/8 I had to jump on it for the price and condition. Marked as “beaver belly” whether that’s the color or fur quality is what I’m trying to figure out as it could be buckskin. But the felt is on par with a BRE clear nutria I own. That being said, it’s...

    Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.

    Here is a Stetson Excellent quality I brought back to life a month or so ago. It was in really bad shape. The photos speak for itself. I took the hat apart and gave it a good cleaning. Blocked it up from a 6 7/8 or 7 to a 7 1/4. New sweatband and new trim. I still have the liner and sweatband...

    Pre 1940s (non-Stetson) Westerns

    Anybody know much about old Thoroughbred Hats? This is an old velour one I got this past week. When it arrived, it was badly crushed and the oval was a bit wonky because of that. I felt it was best to reblock it the best I could with the blocks I had available without changing the character of...

    Boss of the Plains?

    I appreciate everyone’s input and info regarding my hat & any other for that matter! I’m really excited about it and I value your contributions. If anyone would like to help me date it that would be helpful.

    Boss of the Plains?

    Forgot to add the measurements, my mistake. It appears that this hat matches the dimensions of the "Round up" @ 4 3/8 x 3 3/4

    Boss of the Plains?

    Just received this beautiful, what I believe to be a Boss of The Plains, in the mail. The hat came with a purple fabric wrapped around it and stampede straps basically stapled into the hat. I was hoping that there was a chance that the original ribbon would be hidden underneath the purple...

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

    I did reach out asking where the identification of the quality is stemming from, to no reply. It’s really a shame to see a sleazy salesmen approach get in this type of market. Resale is fine but dishonesty is a real bummer. Karma is a thing though!
