Here is today's antique store find; A pre-war long hair stetson from somewhere in the 19teens up to mid 20's at latest. AND IT FITS ME!

Don't rub it in.

And imagine my surprise that Dinerman likes this one.

It's an outstanding hat. Thanks for showing us.
That bow is really unique- never seen that combination
of raw and bowed edges on the back. Say, Art...

So is that a fake wind trolly button? I have a hat with one of those but it's not a Stetson.

Appears to be a genuine wind trolley button but the chord is missing or was never there to begin with, hence it was tacked down.

I sure do. It's a very fuzzy brushed felt fedora from the 'teens or early '20s. Big fat ribbon, too, but no signs of a wind trolley.

.

Is there a link to photos of its exterior?
