Back when one X was a lot of X... Both this hat and the one posted yesterday have the silver foil store imprint. Most of the marks I've seen imprinted with this foil have been in a similar flaky condition to this one. Apparently the silver material was problematic - it is rarely seen... -

Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.
