    Show us their hats!

    A painting from 1931 by A. Viaroz (Switzerland). This may be proof that @Bill Hughes is a time traveler.

    Filson x Stetson Bowler

    Wasn’t me Randy. Nice hat! The 1920 date is within the range of possibility, although that red/white factory sticker lasted until around 1940. It wasn’t a Filson collaboration with Stetson in this case. Just a store that sold the hat. Almost every hat store that sold Stetson had the...

    Open Road/Shaping

    I don’t have experience with that particular felt, but I would use steam (preferred) or just wet it with distilled water prior to shaping. Dry creasing could “spider” the felt.

    I need some HAT help!!!!

    That model is most likely from 1958 (when the Boeing 707 went into regular service) until 1967 (when Byer-Rolnick no longer had the Resistol brand). You might be able to search for old advertising that could narrow that range a bit. Does the sweatband say “Kitten Finish” on it? Those...

    Vintage Photos of Kids in Hats

    My Great Aunt with her husband and son. I never really knew the menfolk, as she moved to live next to my Grandparents as an elderly lady (who crocheted afghans).

    The Stratoliner Society {VINTAGE}

    Late 1950s, early 1960s (? — the keyhole long oval tags confuse me) Royal Stetson Stratoliner. Nice, clean example.

    The Bowler or Derby Hat

    Mid-to-late 1930s Stetson Excellent Quality Feather Weight. Size 7-1/4. This hat store was down the road from the Stetson factory — I wonder if it was some sort of special order as I’ve not seen a three-color logo debossing like this.

    Post New Hats Here!

    A modern (2021) O’Farrell. Pure beaver, but cowboy-hat stiff as one would expect from this hatter — or maybe it was just spec’d that way. Nice hand …
