Nice one Mike. Interesting to see #406 block with the 3.5 BE brim and skinny ribbon. Any evidence of replacement ribbon and chopped brim that you can see? Bowen had one of a similar style that Alan thought may have received the same treatment, hard to tell though if the mod was done several decades though I guess. Great one either way!

This is that same hat. It appears completely original to me. If it's ever been altered, it was done so well you couldn't tell the difference.

Nice addition to your Stetson westerns, heck of a hat!

Thanks. When I just came across it for sale, I was frankly shocked that it had been for sale so long without anyone else snatching it up.
