Everything about this post looks great. And I hear you on the screen name pain. I chose mine from my aol email address - long time passing. Never thought I'd be using it for so long. Always wished I had given it more thought. -

Hat value can be augmented by story telling. Do some research on Jack Henry, which is a historic Kansas City retailer located in Country Club Plaza - the first shopping center designed for automobiles. -

Thanks... I grabbed a few of these when Newspapers.com had a free sample weekend. These weatherized machine-made straws seem to have had a short run. I've not found an ad after 1940? -

Weather resistant Portis Bancoola for a blustery day. The newspaper ad is from 1938. -

An antique parabuntal hat body that I had dreams of blocking and finishing myself. Happy that reason triumphed over fancy... Graham Thompson did a fine job (about 8 years ago). Hard to appreciate how light this hat is - 1.8 ounces on the scale, much of which is sweatband and ribbon. -

That's great. I have yet to wear any of my top hats outside of my house. Does your church have seating to accommodate your topper? The seats in the gallery in Buffalo's City Hall do! -

Pre- 1940s Stetson dress hats.
Indeed... a beauty and a kissin’ cousin to the recently added derbies from me and Brent. Thanks for all the photos of labels and stamps. I think early 1930s is a good bet. -

I'm sorry for the windblown scrape... collateral damage we face when sharing stuff with our hat friends. I can still remember every popped stitch I've caused hunting for clues behind sweatbands. As always, many thanks for your excellent photos of beautiful hats. -

Great! Certainly a very good price. It's almost time to get back out and visit the opera. -

Yes, lay it brim down on a table and press down from the top of the crown. It is spring loaded but should collapse with not too much pressure. The catch to hold it in the collapsed position engages as it reaches the end of its travel. It should pop open with a rap on your thigh. Never owned one... -

A mint green felt is not the easiest color to wear... unless you go all out 1980s. 8^o -

Great Stetson collapsible opera hat... first I've seen marked as a Stetson Special. I think you're right at early 1940s or perhaps late 1930s. Have you tried collapsing the gibus frame? Is the sweatband attached to the liner where they meet? Here's how that works with another Stetson Opera Hat:
