These 'American Royal' hats turn up for sale every now and then. With the exception of HJ's, the only ones I've seen have been 3X Stetson's ranging from the late 40's to late 60's such as the one I bought off Etsy. HJ's is also the only one I've seen that wasn't adorned with pins. Luckily, mine had only 6. I've seen sale hats adorned with as many as 80. A lot of these hats I've run across also had a sterling and enamel Saddle & Sirloin club pin attached and mine had two.Het pins sure were popular in their circle.
