feltfan said:I agree. And I have a Stetson 3X (Mode Edge) of
around the same vintage (same liner and logo).
At first I didn't tumble to its quality. Now I realize
it is a truly remarkable hat. Those 3 Xs are superior
to any Xs you find around these days! A superior felt. Enjoy.

jimmy the lid said:Gene -- I'm thinking you may well have scored the mythical and elusive Stetson Privateer. Sure does look that way. That is a great lid and a fantastic find!!! Congrats! :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

HarpPlayerGene said:Thanks for the info - I think you're right!! I couldn't place it. That's cool. Turns out, I also have a Stetson Privateer hat box in great condition from a previous purchase. It came to me containing some other kind of hat, but now, based on that old ad you pulled, I guess I've got the kit.
ScottF said:Thanks guys. Just noticed I've already lost that red size tag. Bob - don't worry about me getting in your way any more on Borsalinos. My hat racks are filled. I'll warn you that they run a little small - I'm a 7 1/4, and I have two that are slightly small. The two 7 3/8 are a perfect fit.
