First off let me thank everyone who contributes to this forum. Such a wealth of knowledge about these old hats that amazes me all the time ! Until I dropped in here a couple years ago I had no idea Stephen L. Stetson manufactured hats or that the John B Stetson company sued for copyright infringement and won.
I've been keeping my eyes open for one of these to add to my collection and finally found one in my size. Of course it came at a time when I was not prepared to buy another hat , wouldn't you know it ? Needless to say I bit the bullet and hit the buy it now button.lol.

AWESOME, Timmy!!! That looks to be in amazing condition. And let me tell you, you're VERY lucky you saw that before I did, or you'd still be searching! (As I am )

Got the new project hat dusted off a bit and outside this morning. Looks way better in the sun than it did in the dark hallway last night lol.

Resistol Qucksilver 4x.. Big and Dark! Love the silver hatband... has a chain like design in it. Nice looking hat as-is, but plans are for a decent size pencil curl on the brim . Also thinking that Ill do a nice wider tooled leather band with Silver conchos to camouflage the crown height just a bit.. Have a selection of conchos, but may have to go hunting for some others. As tall as the crown is I actually might be able to pull off the domed Morgan Silver dollars! That would look cool but might add a couple pounds to the hat lol. Do think an engraved silver oval would look nice too. Going to be a fun project
