My San Antonio is a dead ringer for my two Stetson ORs, crown height/brim width are exact, but they are all different colors. I haven't heard of the "Dalworth", though I know Resistol made a "Fort Worth". In your photo the hat appears to be a light to medium brown, not what I'd call silverbelly. Was it the lighting?
Anyway, nice hat.

Did you ever notice that in all most every picture you see of Truman with a hat the brim is snapped up, not down.[huh]Lefty said:These photos of Truman and Open Road need to be part of this thread.

Here's mine:
I guess it can't be too strange, if there are multiple names for it.
