Dating Byer Rolnick & Resistol hats by liner logo

[Rmccamey]

While we have some great info regarding trademarks here on the Fedora Lounge, I wanted to create a topic thread to discuss and document the age of BR & Resistol hats by, or in part by, liner logo using pictures of actual hats; a pictorial encyclopedia of sorts.

I'll start with a Resistol bowler having a sword and crown liner logo. (I have not seen another Resistol bowler, so anyone has one, please post ) With the typewritten reorder tag, I'm guessing 1970's? I look forward to seeing your hats!

I think with Byer-Rolnick printed on the liner it’s older than that. The Twenty ($20) also makes me think it’s older.
