I was wondering about the two guys as well. No mention of names anywhere that I could find. I wonder if the days of shops that size are over. Legendary closed a couple of years ago and looking around this morning, it looks like J. B. Hill has gone down. It was sold a couple of years ago.
Pretty cool, @mullitt. Finding something you prefer is most important and though simple, those boots are about as unique as they come for the era. White label Nocona's are rare enough now but this pair looks like a boot someone ordered when they did MTM/MTO boots. No toe wrinkles or bug, the...
I've looked around before and never located the pairs. I did find a pair of the Prince's. No mention of the maker but it

It's a Nutria Quality felt which means there is a lot of Nutria...
Sometimes I think these boots are better off on your porch
My hat sure looks at home hanging on your side of the door
It's hard to pack a bag with you lying there in bed

I don't know bee $h17 from wild honey about dating a sombrero but it looks like a traditional Charro sombrero to me. The eagle embroidery on the crown seems to be a common theme.
