i got a call from a woman who has a 1938 stetson 100 she wants to know something about.
she said her father moved from new york to texas and bought this hat.
so its a western hat.
oh yes.
and its a stetson 100?
yes
was your father a high roller in 1938? if this is the hat im thinking of it was expensive for the time.
he was not a high roller he was a sales manager for a company but he always said he paid 100 dollars for this hat.
in 1938?
yes
that was a lot of money for a hat in 1938.
was it?
yes. i would like to see the hat and give you a better idea of what you have....
so we are meeting next week to see the hat she said didnt get worn much.
does anyone have any input as to the special nature of what i am anticipating. was the 100 a chinchilla or something like that or waht made it a 100 dollar hat at that time?
any other good input will be appreciated.
