hat making in the US has nothing to do with hats made elsewhere
hats made in the US pretty much went to $#!t right around the early to mid 50s ... as where something like Borsalino made in Italy stayed high quality for decades after that
quality as far as felt , leather and construction...
SOLD!!!
Your chance to own an absolutely mint 1930s Stetson Standard Quality with original box
Size 7 1/4
I absolutely love this hat but I just can’t wear a black hat so I offer it up to you guys.
Originally sold at the Stetson retail store as stated by the address on the sweatband and on...
and another ... can’t wait to have a chance to look at my other Borsalino hats to check for price tags
I find it interesting that both mine and Vic’s “Angora” are $10 hats
possibly an earlier piece than I had suspected ?

which is what I intended to type in my last post if my daughter wasn't screaming at me at the time ... that is could also be no model at all
definitely a nice one
for some reason those later tagged Stetsons don't tickle me as much ... I'll get very interested in a piece until I see that...
Could also be a Bantam ... mine pictured below ... which is quite close to a Playboy as well
I unfortunately don’t know the block used for the Bantam for mine is not marked with a block number ... but when compared side by side they are quite close

absolutely outstanding ...
my first Gannon was steel mid ribbon on granite ... still an absolute favorite of mine
looks amazing on you
Michael is one of the best in the biz ... glad so many of you get to own his work
great hat my man ... and yes the OPS tag puts it directly in the '51-'53 range
seriously wonderful piece ... those Foxhounds are just fantastic ... and that edge treatment is a knockout
