    The Official Stetson 25 Thread

    And here are two charms on ebay And here are a couple of internet images of a Stetson one, (I did not think to take a picture when I had it off the hat). Getting a 50's Champ in a 30's Stetson Box does not make the hat a Stetson or a 30's hat. I was not in any way dissing your cool pin.....I...

    The Official Stetson 25 Thread

    The Official Stetson 25 Thread

    ME Too! Trying to search for one (in any way) is impossible, as once they separate from the hat people do not know what they even are. Same for the Longhorn Clip. And they are only marked "Sterling", nothing else. I was so pleased when this hat came with one.....:)

    Jack, Eisenhower was regular army, Truman wore his in a pinch. Stetson themselves introduced the OR as a snap brim fedora with a pinch crown (and I am NOT talking the 1937 Fedora)......we even have some of the 40's ads in this very thread. Both presidents wore a camber fedora when in...
