Well.....YES......with due respect.....Are you saying Bowen's Open Trail is not a production "Homburgish" Oen Road model?

No. 1 It is not even labeled as an OR, so why you would even call it an OR I do not know. I even doubt it came in that configuration.....any ads for one? I think i do have a catalog listing or two and it does NOT look like that.
No. 2 it is no more a "homburgish" OR than my Eddie Baur 3X is........
No.3 A LOT OF HATS HAVE NARROW BOUND BRIMS, and they are not OR's either.....or homburgs...or a Statoliner.
Are all these "homburgish" OR's.......???

As addendum, pencil curl offerings for Western hats were pretty much gone by 1940.....that is outside of the "Tom Mix" offerings.......and some of the smaller proportioned "Wild Wild West" offerings of the 60's.....
