I would you please be so kind and tell me how wide the brim is and what kind of company insignia is on the Liner ? !

I think the brim is around 2" and was advertised as such, but I'd need to measure it to be certain. The liner shows the company as:

Broadstreet's
CHICAGO - NEW YORK

Stetson 7X Clear Beaver Quality, mode edge non-western, ventilated crown. This hat was restored at Optimo. I've used pieces from the original sweatband for repairs and other projects. The back of the sweatband appears to have been used for scientific notation at some point. Originally purchased at the venerable Pantke-Harpke store in Milwaukee.

interesting place for scientific notes. Are they war secrets? Spy hat?

Good afternoon. Grocery store run early morning had me sporting a Lee Adventurer. Buckskin is the color.

Home late morning and went for a walk to enjoy the cool Fall weather.

Hard to see, but a young 4 point buck was enjoying the sun or wished a close-up of my Gannon Wanderer (silver belly).

I'm slow and late to the game today. Looks like everyone is out of my league anyway. But here is another Resistol non-western.

And if my hat can't be Royal Deluxe at least my shoes can be Royal Imperial.

So, so many fine hats here today. So many.

The second image really shows off the wonderful color. What vintage are those great shoes?

Hey folks!
Tons of awesome felt (and people!) today, as always.
This Fléchet Haut Luxe SFDH may or may not have the power to drive away the clouds (see pics :)) but it always brings some sunshine into my soul when I wear it.

The shirt, however, sometimes makes me feel like I'm stuck in a box that isn't there...
Have a great day!

Fantastic European! The felt looks so smooth and supple, even through a two dimensional photograph!
