Post New Hats Here!
A Stetson Sovereign that I picked up for a song at a local thrift store. It's an olive color, with a 6" tall crown and 2 1/4" brim; based on the logo on the sweat I believe it's from the 1950s. I certainly left the store with a smile on my face that day. -

Looks like I missed on this one...
Thanks guys, you live and learn right? The seller has agreed to a return, though I'm waiting for confirmation that the refund will include the original shipping. No sense in paying $20 in shipping costs (original plus return shipping) for a $25 refund. So we'll see what happens. I'll... -

Unfortunately, I think the only way is to find a 1940's or 50's Cavanagh that you don't want and take the liner out of it. -
