Stetson Floridian

[Uncle Vern]

That might be hard to do. I suspect it was a model built by Stetson that might have had a short run. I've others of the cream-colored variety, some bearing a "Stetson-Canada" label. I think it's basically the same hat, probably just produced in different colors, and shipped either open-crowned or with a single center dent.

Maybe I could contact Stetson and they could tell me---Hahahahahahahah! I know I had a stupid moment there. The people there have no idea about anything they produced a few years ago much less what they produced over fifty years ago. I suppose that might explain how they forgot to make hats whose color doesn't run or fade and taper like a dunce cap.
I suppose photos of older hats may be the only way.
