Great '40s Stetston, 40.

And grats on the new arrival, moon.

Congrats big daddy Moon!!!!

This showed up at my house today.

Any ideas as to the age would be appreciated. Would the $16.50 price predate a twenty. The construction of the hat is more in line with a 20 that I have, nicer than a 15. Guild edge, fancy little bow in back. This one has an oilskin liner in the tip.

Stick with Dweezil.

Is that better than Moon Unit ?

Boy, you ain't kiddin'. Dan Blocker was 6'4", and weighed approximately 300 lbs.. Several years ago my wife and I paid a visit to Old Tucson studios in Arizona, and they had one of the shirts on display that Mr. Blocker wore on Bonanza--it looked like a tablecloth.

Third Stagecoach, first to still have the pin attatched. Needs some shaping and some light sanding on a few bites, but I'm glad to have it.

Nice!
I'm in the need of some Stagecoach pins...
Don't forget to post it on the Stagecoach thread.

Al , Look at this Baby on the Noggin , ... Western , Anyone ? Thread ... . Dan Blocker could have been a Blocker (Right Tackle) , but I heard he was Super Kind .

...Dan Blocker could have been a Blocker (Right Tackle) , but I heard he was Super Kind .

From what I've read, many people described him as "a gentle giant".

Janyška "Vlasto", 59cm, NOS condition, probably mid 1940s to later 1940s. The felt easily dry creases and the hat has a very nice overall form. This one is from my May 2016 Czech find.

I haven't a blue homburg.....one but it is not my size
This Janyška "Vlasto" is fantastic!
Steve "the Master of Homburg" strikes again

I'd say mid 50s on the dark gray Disney, based on the design and back bow. I'm interested in seeing your Stetsonian. When you get a chance, if you could post some shots in The Stetsonian Institution thread, that'd be great!

Is that better than Moon Unit ?

Better? I dunno. Could be Apple, or Rumer, or (shudder) Austin. Like their father said, they're last name will get them in more trouble than their first!

Trying to overcome my shyness here, but I'll throw a guess of early 1960s on your lids. GREAT lids, both, and the others you described sound like you're well on track with quality hats, Stephen.

Congrats, my friend!!
