For sale is my own Stetson Fifty from the late 1950's and early 1960s. In excellent condition. No moth holes or moth tracks, no stains on lining, no marks on felt. A very slight creasing marks in one small patch of the leather sweatband where the ends are joined stitched. Brim is 2 3/4 inches. Crown as it is shaped currently is 4 1/2 inches in front and 4 1/2 in the back with the middle at 5 inches high. Color is silverbelly. The fur felt is soft and pliable and not stiff and hard like the Stetson One Hundred I've handled before. I did not find reorder tag under the leather sweat band or any other markings there but there is a thin opaque strip of sweat
barrier. Cleaned in early 2013 by master hatter Vince Corvelli. Black rectangular size tag says 7. No hat box included. Making room for another hat arriving. Asking $155.00 or Best Offer. Shipping within continental U.S.A. is $11.00.
