Finally found a Stetson Open Road to fit my huge head. It's in decent shape but needs some cleaning before I try creasing it:

Well... I made it 3 days back on the Lounge before I started cruising eBay. And it was a mere 1 day later that I got a new hat. (DAMN YOU HAT MONKEY!!!!)

It arrived today.

A Trimble Silver Beaver XXX Quality that is in just lovely shape. I reckon late '40s or '50s vintage.

Since Saturday, I've been madly researching Trimble Hat Co.. I get a kick out of the history of the smaller firms. There is not alot of info on the internet (including on the Lounge). But I am going to include what I found in the Trimble thread within the next week or so.

What nice condition. It's very good looking, and with the box! Looking forward to more posts and information about Trimble.

Nice hat branching out into westerns?

Great find Rockwater, from Jackson Hole, no less.
Terrific find, Rockwater! My guesstimate on the age is late fifties, early sixties... but I was wrong once before. Whatever age it might be, it's a keeper!

Once is forgivable, thanks for the info.

Thanks, the location stamp was a dealmaker for me, seems to sprinkle some cred on the package.
