Curiosity got the best of me on this one...

I sure wish Stetson embossed model names like that! Looks very 30's or earlier. Not much info on The Superior Hat Co. other than oblique references in The American Hatter. But this looks like it's in very good condition for its age.
Here's a Denver Dry Goods ad I saved from the Lounge with their generic iteration of The Dakota model. Funny how differently copyright worked back then ("a perfect copy of Stetson's Carlsbad shape...")
"...a semi-dress hat suitable for the heavy-set man."
Yes...that is definitely me.
