I am researching a Stetson 30X El Patrón Western hat in the discontinued or possibly discontinued Husk color.
Stetson Customer Support has kindly explained that its department does not have access to historical catalogs or production records that would establish the manufacturing dates.
I am hoping someone with long-standing knowledge of Stetson's Western hat production might recognize the following factory identifiers:
My primary question is not necessarily the exact date my individual hat was made, but rather during which years Stetson offered the El Patrón in Husk, Color 69.
Would someone in historical product development, Western sales, manufacturing, or a longtime Stetson dealer network be able to help identify this color's production period?
