Stetson Whippet, vintage unknown but first series. (Can anyone help me with approximate production dates for the first series Whippet?)

Edited to add: I just checked the paper tag in the sweatband and found the initials O.P.S. and a price of $10. From other posts in this forum, do I recall correctly that this means it's Korean war vintage with an Office of Price Stabilization tag?

It might look black on the screen, but it's brown. Bashed by me with the advice found here.

Awesome thread, by the way. I hope it has a long life.

The Omega Man's hat of choice; pilot's cap with scrambled eggs. Looks dashing while retiring commie--I mean zombies!;)

30s or 40s cream-colored Courtney fur felt, standing in front of the Ambassador Hotel. I'm leaning toward 30s because it has a pretty tall crown and not as wide of a brim as many of my hats.
