Thank you my friend.
Just picked up 2 "new to me" hats from David.
1940s Stetson Whippet
So what makes that hat a 1940's hat? Would really like to learn more about your dating system.
After further research and examination, I believe this is a mid-50's Stetson. Sorry for the misinformation.
Right. I am going mid 50s based on the liner. Mid to late 40s Stetsons had "American Manufacture" under the crest. This one does not have that feature. There are many treads on this, and I am by no means an expert, so if anyone has other info, please correct me. Liner pic below. Cheers!OK, again I must ask what makes it mid-50's? Inquiring minds...
Alan, I love your Borsalino, what a wonderful hat!
Very impressive Justin, nice to see you.

P.S. This is a Canadian Stetson Whippet
