Very nice hat! I can't help you with the age but it looks older to me.
I hate it when a nice older hat is improperly shipped. Awhile back I bought an older Stetson Open Road that was crammed into a Priority Mail box that was half the size of the hat. The hat looked great in the auction photos and had survived over 70 years without any damage and then was ruined by the Seller's shipping. His response was it will bounce back into shape because it was felt! That is the only item I have every bought on EBay I had to return. It killed me to see a beautiful old hat ruined like that. Luckily yours looks like it wasn't damaged too bad.
