Just searching thru Bill's link.
Robert, not exactly sure what you mean by current configuration. But the "basic" open road style has been around since at least 1918. See the ads in this Schoble thread: NobleSchoble
They had one in their 1918 ad. Stetson and No Name Hat Mfg also had ads in 1918/1919 with hats pretty much identical to what we consider an Open Road.
