Excellent looking hat Justin. A name like Wilson Distinctive Styles seems like a retailer, might be another maker branded for Wilson. Hope you find some clues.

Justin, that was a brand made by Mallory. I have some sales planners that were posted in the Mallory Madness thread that showed hats from Wilson. Unfortunately those pics were lost in the photobucket debacle. I will be rebuilding that thread during the winter. Should be a great hat!

Thanks Moon. I have had a couple fedoras in this color get by me over the last year. I’m glad I was finally able to score one. Now if I just had that teal Lee I missed a few weeks ago!

Was the high bidder on this Marathon earlier today. Seller says 1940s but I have no idea. Can’t find much information on dating these Penny Marathons. It looks pretty dirty. Hoping it cleans up.

I couldn’t find a thread on Marathons. Maybe one should be started?
