I have a couple 50s Stetsons in the queue that I'm looking forward to receiving, but this was an interesting one that popped up today in my search results, threw out a not terribly high bid and won it for cheap. Looks very dirty and potentially something was eating the sweatband and someone did a weird re-sewing job on the back seam (although the photos are horrible, so who knows). But I'm intrigued because I'm pretty sure it's a 40s hat and I haven't seen many Stetson Premiers. It's possible a nice gas bath will clean it right up, but even if not I'm looking forward to checking it out when it shows up.
