    This one is gorgeous!! The hats I would trade away for this one. I love the 1/4 inch binding with the slight pencil curl. Absolutely classic!

    Stetson Sweat Stamps/ LOT XXXX

    You would think with all the money Stetson had, they would have bought a new set of stamps with an extra digit verses rolling over the numbers. ;)

When I received the hat, the original sweatband was detached from the hat. A new sweatband was sewn into the hat and a new ribbon/bow was made for it as well. The...

    1890's-1900's early hat manufacture HAWES (Hawes Von Gal) HAT CO

    Thanks very much! You make a good point about the larger size tags. Another possibility could be that there were less of the larger size tags because Hawes Von Gal sent less of the larger sizes and more of the smaller sizes. The average mens hat size in the 20's was somewhere around a size 7 and...

    For Sale - Herbert Johnson White fur felt fedora 7 1/8 US (Size 7 UK) 57

    Up for sale is a really cool Herbert Johnson fedora in white. I bought this hat hoping that it would fit my size 7 head, but its a little too big. Its labeled as size 7 UK which equates to 7 1/8 US. Its also labeled 57 which is a 7 1/8 US. The felt is really nice on this one. Its probably...

    Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.

    Fantastic catch, Alan. Its quite a beauty. I was watching that hat and was going to bid, but decided not to. I guess its true what they say, "You don't regret the things you bought, its the things you didn't buy."

    The Stetsonian Institution

    I think these examples are really important in understanding hat style trends throughout the 20th century. The Stetsonian to me was always the hat model that exemplified the mainstream fashion at the time. They were not super flashy hats, but relatively conservative in appearance that would...

    Pre 1940s dress hats

    1900's Enterprise Brand Clear Nutria Fedora ( GSH & Co) This one is really cool. Its had a hard life. There is quite a bit of moth damage, but I thought it has great stampings. Its definitely an early deep scooped upbrimmed fedora, but I was unable to find any info in any vintage American...
