Western, anyone?

[gam]

New to me - Biltmore "Three Bar" Western. Brim 3 3/4 ", crown 6", 218 grams. No French on the sweatband so I'm guessing pre-1974 sometime.

3X Stetson with embroidered last drop liner, made in Philadelphia, with box. 6" open crown with 3.5" bound edged brim. Don't find stuff like this at the junk sales too often. And it fits.

Here is a copy of the 1951 ad (from my 3x thread here: https://www.thefedoralounge.com/thr...egend-the-stetson-3x-before-1970.94192/page-7) showing the Longhorn....It was a $20 hat!!!! I don't think Stetson had any other 6 cord with those dimensions and a bound edge at this time.
Be sure to add yours to the thread! And getting the early "roundup" box makes it over the top cool!!!! Again congrats!!!

American Hat Co. 3X in whisky:

This was the first time I’ve worn this hat in over a year so it’s currently listed on eBay if anyone is interested in a 7 3/4.

Congratulations Dale! That is exactly one of the models we're thinking Jack Daniel wore in those famous pics. You better go & buy a mega lottery ticket!

Thanks Jack. That's awesome. Believe it or not, right after I bought the hat I won $20 from a $2 scratch-off ticket from a gas station at the state line. Didn't hit the Powerball, though.

I sure like the lines of that Gannon, Jack. It's a true work of art.

My Akubra Territory clone of a southern planters hat (still needing a ribbon).

A 1957 Ford 9N now converted back & running on an original single wire 6-volt generator from a 12-volt alternator.

Time for a drink. Too bad it didn't have original cupholders.
