I'm keeping an eye out for hats for a young friend with a smaller head, and saw this. Mallory is not a brand in my wheelhouse, so any ideas on vintage here? Thanks in advance!

This is a post 1946 Stetson takeover Mallory. Most likely later 1950s with the card stock size tag instead of fabric. Mallory was still making very good quality hats in this era.

Thank you, Joe! I was guesstimating late 50s from the general style; nice to know I was, even if by happenstance, in the right ballpark! :D

Greetings,

I am new to this forum and this is my first Mallory. I would like to know how old it is, what model, and what pliafelt means? The material is very soft and barely holds its shape. Pretty cool that whoever owned this before, one can tell they loved it.

Any information is appreciated.

Best regards,

I would like to know how old it is,

This tag makes it pretty easy to date as 1951-1953.
