As it's reported the Dalton Hat Company was sold in 1953, those made after that date were likely made with the rights to the name only. The trail goes cold after 1953, unfortunately.
The design of CR's hat screams 60s to me, so it is most likely a Dalton in name only. The logos certainly seem...
In the case of the one I posted, no determination is needed. It's a labelled Dalton through and through.
What's on the label behind the sweat, if there is one?
I don't even see where it says Dalton.
Or is that what you're pointing out?
Here is a Dalton His Excellency. Now in my possession.

I wear straw in the afternoon
Kinda like my old blue pitbull
We like to listen to a baseball game
And I ain't got no money
But I damn sure got a lot of hats!
Playboy and Disney Milan
That one is going to be a toughie as it has non-traditional tagging since it's a straw and not a felt hat. Although the type of debossing on the sweatband points to an earlier era (at least pre-1950).
Others may have the knowledge to pinpoint more clues as to era, but for starters, you can...
Several years ago, a generous FLer offered to send a Dalton box to me for the cost of shipping. I of course accepted the offer. Around the same time, he sold a Whippet on eBay for a very tidy sum.
A day or so later, he contacted me and said, "Jim, please look in the box I sent you when you...
