Selling or trading my early 50's Stetson ‘The Sovereign’ it has no open road designation but similar shape and styling. The crown is around 4 1/2” high and the brim measures around 2 1/2 - 2 5/8”
I do have what I believe to be the original box.
From what I have learned it’s definitely early 50’s. It has the keyhole tag without the integer and Stetson written above. The felt is quite soft and nothing on the hat is stiff. I was easily able to do a dry re-shape to a cattleman’s crease ( just to see what it looked like in my pondering of is this an OR? )
At any rate it’s a beautiful and I'm told quite rare hat in nice shape.. but its a 7 1/4 and it doesn’t fit me.
Make me an offer! I am most interested in a trade for something of a similar vintage in my size which is 7 3/8 - 7 1/2
