Holy moley... that is the best post around these parts in a long time. Explains why we see so few beaver quality hats from this time period. Wonder where the clear nutria fit in the price rubric? Under real nutria, perhaps...
Thank you, thank you, thank you! That was truly a great find and read!! I LOVE the shot of Marie Gail. I don't find it all that common to see females featured in advertising of that type back in the day.
To Art's point above, I can barely see anyone wearing much more than a 6" crown!!
WOW, just found this....Your booklet is awesome and especially the additional information and pricing.....I have a similar booklet....with the same art......BUT..............other than the picture of Cody mine has NO celebrity pictures and has completely different hats......Many of the hats in mine are earlier styles. Also mine is titled Stetson Staple Shapes...but the pages say styles.....
Hmmmmmmmmmm...... I would guess mine is a little earlier............perhaps a first edition of sorts?

Here are some shots.....
