The Resistol Roundup

Forgot this thread existance...
Pictures of my Resistol Beaver 25. Have the original receipt when it was bought... 7 days to make 48 years.

Nice one Joao!

Thanks! I picked it up on eBay. Definitely not a bargain find but I shudder to think what this hat would cost new. It came with a box that is from a later era, but not a big deal for me. I have plenty of old Resistol hat boxes to park this one in.

OK, found it. I'd say it's well worth the price you paid. Stunning condition for it's age.

Nice one Joao!

The felt is really nice. Love it!

I think its obvious but I have a big weakness for old Resistols!

Me too, but I'm all about big brims.

That's easy to have. Hard to satisfy.


Sent directly from my mind to yours.

You're kidding?

 

[Joao Encarnado]

You're kidding?

No. You can keep the hats with less than 3 1/2" brim for you.

Just worked my way up to 3"

 

[Joao Encarnado]

Not enough.

Looks pristine, Rick! Better watch out with the Ant designation in it. Moonie might try to claim it!

Awesome hat! Those San Ants with the old crest (no tip liner) are precious; finding one in such great condition is really awesome!

Thanks to all for the nice comments on this hat. If it fit me it would be, without a doubt, be my favorite hat. Ugh!
