I would have driven a lot further than that. That Milan is special, the ribbon rocks; it’s a fantastic piece!

What blizzard? I went to Jordan’s Furniture Clearance Center this afternoon, then got the grill going to do a couple of turkey drumsticks. B52723CE-E6A8-4986-B646-BCE6ED0346E8.jpeg FA60E6DA-B113-407F-8C73-2A832FCF1013.jpeg DE553CC4-4FFC-41FB-B276-5CD0A7D82AD2.jpeg

A Mallory with a Stetson size tag? Things that make you go "hmmmmm..."

Thanks on the Stetsonian. That Milan has a great ribbon.

Sorry, my friend. Very good, but all pig, and collards with bacon, plus bacon cheddar pull apart bread to round it off.

Precursor to the "Mallory by Stetson" designation I figured.
Stetson purchased Mallory in 52' yeah?

'52 0r '53, I forget. But production at the Mallory factory continued apace for many years after that, they were just managed by Stetson. Mixing pieces parts seems pretty unusual.

Mallory by Stetson hats were many years after that - at least 60s. Their best use is to mop the floor.
