Circa 1875....Note this ties with their stock of children's clothes, hats and caps.....heavy guilding.
Here is a Circa 1960 Shudde Brothers folder that contains 13 postcards you can order a new hat from.....In addition to being hatters they were expert renovators too.....many people think they only offered renovation but like many another hatter they had a full range outfitting store including clothing!!!

The $40 Dobbs Rancher was a special level hat like the Stetson 7X or others Beaver 50. It was introduced around 1951 or so....and for the same $40. So western version of a Dobbs Forty....Interesting that the Dobbs Rancher was
$40 when the Borsalino Crema was only $25. The Dobbs being almost twice the price of the Borsalino was unexpected. Thanks for posting these, Mark. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
