Beaver Brand pure beaver. This hat was completely remade by Wolfbrae and it turned out fantastic!

Western Week Wednesday

Got out the steamer and went to work on the brim of the Stetson No. 1 Quality. Raised up the bumpers as Brent would say.

Digging the evolution of this one.

I have reason to believe that this was a second-hand one you picked up and reshaped, right? If so, then you did a good job. I know I would myself.

Thanks man. Yes. It was pretty much a crumpled mess when it arrived. When I cleaned it up a few weeks back... I decided to press the brim flat. This week I have the brim a cool new shape. My original goal was a kettle curl. May happen in the future.
 
Does anyone have any idea what year this liner is? Maybe 40s?
Btw. I didn't take the photo, but I bought the hat.

You bought it from me. :)

It is somewhere in the range of 1940 to 1952 (as far as I know ... basing this on the single-celled red/white factory sticker). Unless someone can narrow it down further based on the the use of the embroidered Last Drop liner.
