Thanks alot for the short and detailed summary on dating a Stetson and this one in particular.
I've already looked through the other Stetson Dating threads and picked up useful info here and there, but that's alot of reading and many of the photo details seem to be lost over time.
BTW: the eBay...
Every collector (no matter what items) must be cautious at some point.
It starts as a hobby, can turn into a passion ... but once its an obsession you might be in trouble :-)
When did Stetson introduce the first "3x Beaver" ?
Ebay seller claims this one is from 1920-30s !?
I assume not older than 1950s, but you are welcome to correct me.
I like the style of that Cavanagh Milan. I have a similar looking Dobbs Panama in dark blue.
You can tell that Randoph supplies the USAF just by looking at the model names.
I like the "Yeager" shades best; Chuck Yeager (from the German "Jäger" = hunter) was a bad-ass fighter- and test-pilot.
