    Thanks, Dave. Can you give us a time frame on that ad?

    Going Atomic With Dalton

    I think I have a couple different types of size tag. I was interested if the reorder tag was one with the eagle and whatnot.

    The Dalton logo has a D, however.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Some rain this morning and a drop from the mid-90s to mid-80s today. Unlined felt is back, baby!

    No, but it's nice to find another fan. I loved that show.

    "Duke." Stop trying to promote me.

    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?

    Going Atomic With Dalton

    I don't even see where it says Dalton. Or is that what you're pointing out? Here is a Dalton His Excellency. Now in my possession. https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/going-atomic-with-dalton.57089/post-2934191

    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...

    Maple leaf on sweat logo; stars on liner tip logo. Usually points to early/mid-50s.

    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.
