I posted this pre-Stetson Mallory bowler or derby on the Mallory Mile thread yesterday. It seems to date from 1929 to 1934 per notes from buler, etc.

Pre-1930 Trimble fedora made in Orange, NJ. I've also posted this hat on the Trimble Tavern thread.

Pre-1917 T W Hobson & Co hat. I'm thinking it dates prior to 1917 because the Union label doesn't have the Union Printers "bug" in the upper left corner. The T W Hobson Co was incorporated in 1895.

The Sheridan by Thanhauser Hat Co. This is another pre-1917 hat where the Union label doesn't have the Printers Union bug in the upper left corner. This hat is for sale on eBay.
