Thank you J1 !Jauntyone said:Wow! Very neat! That 1950s ad is especially interesting to us stingy-brim fans. I wonder what the brim width is on it?
In any case, thank you for posting these ads, RBH!

In Stetson's application for a trade mark for the Stratoliner hat, they claim they first used it April 19 1940.

Thank you Mr Director!!jimmy the lid said:Great stuff, Rusty! :eusa_clap
Lots of narrow brim styles there, although I note that both narrow and regular brim widths were available. So, by 1959 the entry level price on a Stetson was $11.95. Great info. Also interesting to see that the Whippet was still being offered at this time.
Thanks for taking the time to research this!
Cheers,
The Director
