    Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns

    I'm guessing I've posted this one here in earlier pages... if so, pardon the refresh. 1930s issue, in very good condition.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Thank you for the translation. This was sold as a Japanese fireman’s coat - I found it at a local flea market. It is very heavy cotton. My Mother was a buyer in the fashion industry in NYC who traveled to Asia frequently. Between her collection and my costume designer wife’s, we have some nice...

    Fantastic hat. Many nice markers of age to it… the LOTXXXX number places it before 1920. Thanks for the great photos.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    A simple Royal looking in all ways like a Stratoliner, but not one. This World War II era hat was sold in the village of East Aurora, NY (a lovely town just south of Buffalo) in a shop owned by Max Menashe Kadet whose name was Kadecki when he was born in Poland in 1883. He died in 1961. Oh the...

    Western, anyone?

    An oldie and goodie... when 1X meant an excellent hand and long wearing felt and sweatband. When I won the eBay auction many years ago the seller sent a note that she wasn't sure but thought the hat was vintage. Late teens to 1920 is my age estimate. Horsehair band is old but not original to the...

    Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.

    I find it a hard color to coordinate - somehow it reminds me of Robin Hood in Sherwood Forest green. It does match up pretty well with this Lululemon zip jacket. I've seen a few unusual brilliant colors come from Silverwoods store in Los Angeles, which was the seller of this hat.

    Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.

    Imperial Stetson in 3X Beaver Quality - a fifteen dollar hat when sold c.1940 perhaps late 1930s. Hard to capture the intense pine green felt in a photo. One of my favorite hats, worn brim up.

    Stetson Vita-felt

    Happy to see that one found a good home. Sorry for the condition, but it's an unusual 7X and older than most.

    Transitional. Era unknown, but likely a Hat Corporation of America product from the 1940s.

    Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.

    BTW, I have a similar hat, a little later example, in select quality. I like to think of these as upbrim soft hats rather than homburgs, but I'm not sure there is much of a difference.

    A real beauty... with the old Silverwoods imprint too. Great to see,
