Rabbit, That's a beautiful 3X beaver. I think the embroidered last drop liner is a classic, one that I'd like to find in my size.

Thanks, BR.
It's one of two Stetson 3XB in this style that I've seen on ebay lately - in my size and in mint condition, that is. From what I've heard from the more experienced loungers, this general style actually appears to be rather abundant. I've been searching for just a few months, so that might explain why I haven't seen more of these.
The embroidered liner sure is a nice feature. :)

Steve-- that looks absolutely amazing. +1 on that ribbon color-- looks sublime over the black velour.
DNO-- what a great find! looks mint, and can't complain at that price!
Rabbit-- that is a wonderful specimen. Classic and simple as a western hat should be. how 'bout a noggin' shot, since we're so used to seeing you in those amazing fedoras of yours!?

Perry, Beautiful black PB! Black hats are under rated IMHO.

Manfred, Again great pickups! Both are fantastic and the Mayser was an absolute steal price wise.

It appears this designation and sweatband with the rolled-over edge lasted longer than I thought. Sweatband light patches are from where the Auction tag was taped on:mad:

Perhaps it had a Stetson renovation and the bow and size tag were replaced. They look pristine white while the sweatband and factory stamps show significant wear.[huh] Or just a 40's hat.

More thrift store luck.

I wish I had your luck, that's a really beautiful hat! I thought I did pretty well paying $70 for this new lid. I really wanted a truly non-tapered fedora, so I sprang for this fur felt sale hat on Hats In The Belfry. Looks rather '20s/'30s to my eye, despite being thoroughly modern. The felt is rather thin, but still feels great.

Looking for some hat inspiration... I love the shape of this one. No taper is a great thing!

Is it just me, or does Groucho look jealous?

Everyone has such great hats lately. I'm glad I have a humble piece to contribute!
