FS: 7 3/8 Resistol Beaver One Hundred OR Clone - 60's / 70's

[J Williams]

Another hat to be moved along

What I believe to be a late 60's early 70's Resistol OR clone 'Beaver One Hundred'

5 1/2 open crown 2 3/4 bound brim - The colour is a light silverbelly that seems to lean towards a greenish hue ( could be my eyes ) But it's definitely different from my 60's 7XCB ( which almost seems kind of purple ) and way lighter than my 50's OR's

The felt is really dense and has a very soft velvety hand to it ( a bit more than my 7X )
Takes and holds a dry crease well - The brim is pretty stiff and doesn't want to snap down

has a couple little spots on the underside of the brim and has a bit of a lighter coloration around the bottom of the crown which is hard to photograph. Someone stapled on a little leather patch to cover up the previous owners name 'James A Puckett'

Willing to entertain any reasonable offers or trade for something else in a 7 3/8

Asking $200.00 USD + Shipping ( Since it's shipping from Canada I will have to quote it based on destination )

What are you looking for in a trade? We share the same size so I may have something to trade.

That is a nice hat and a very fair price.

Ps it might be older than you think

My main hats of choice and what I'm looking to collect are mostly old westerns. This one is so similar to my 7XCB that I don't find I'm fitting it into the rotation. That being said I'm happy to take a look at what you would want to trade.

Thanks Vic - haven't done a lot of research on resistols was just my gut instinct with the square tag and general attributes. By the way I finally scored myself a BRE! It's a bit weathered but I'm still pretty thrilled.
