the sweat stamp does not look Stetson to me.
Looks like a Stetson from early this century. Isn’t that box from the 1950s?
Watch the channel Grit. They show old western movies and old movies from50’s and 50’s in general. You hat lovers will see a variety of hats.
Of course we can’t talk about hats without mentioning Michael Jackson. His love for the hat is iconic.
Jackson is like one of us and he actually loved the hat where other famous celebrities at the time didn't show that love or it wasn't documented. It was part of fashion and once the hat was gone they also ditched them. Jackson has worn fedora for 3 plus decades when people then, and now, still think it is goofy.
I believe Golden Gate Hatters made his hat but most of the stuff he wore were Borsalinos. There was a Stetson he was pictured in.
While true but he did have an influence on the floppy looking fedora that everyone has come to love. Floppy creases and tops. He rarely wore anything where the crease were steamed stiff and perfect like the modern hats.While I enjoy his music, you can count the folks on here who look to him for hat inspiration on one finger.

It is my personal opinion that anyone who wears a particular hat because Michael Jackson wore it, is ………. odd.
My son and I have a tradition of watching ”Gremlins” on Christmas Eve (don’t judge). I always notice Hoyt Axton’s Stetson. It looks so natural. View attachment 573982 View attachment 573983
