I didn't know that. Good information, thanks!The "Conformatic" puts it in the Byer-Rolnick (Resistol) family.
Glad to see you land one Jim! That's an interesting liner ... not sure why it makes me think of this:
Gustin Vintage Heavyweight Sweatshirt - Natural Rainbow Nep - $119 Rugged 14oz cotton that gets better with every wear. 
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - #395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks. 
Himel Bros. - The Ross Mk. 1 Leather Jacket Classic D-pocket motorcycle/aviator style jacket. 
DO NOT let that fall in the water!!!Stetson 7X CB this afternoon

Thank you, steur! I appreciate that.
Those are some fine looking lids there, steur. I'm definitely envious!
I was thinking the Italian version of this from WWII which seems kind of similar. I wonder why? Have to look this one up.That's a Mercury head dime, Mike
Wow Jim! That liner is mezmerizing! I'll have to check this one out in the thread. Congratulations.Mid- to late- 50s Stratoliner. Just got it yesterday. A few more pics in the vintage Strat thread.

Another museum piece Justin. That profile shot just screams 1920s. One of my definite favorites sir!
I think you can pull off this brim quite well. This stingy does not look stingy. We will excuse the B-ball cap...this time.I have a confession to make: I’ve been traveling a bit and it has been hot, humid, and cumbersome to bring fedoras. I’ve been wearing primarily baseball caps, but as the work season settles back in and temperatures are slightly cooler and air is slightly drier, I’ve been enjoying this stingy Dobbs guild edge for several days.
It is unusual for me to favor a grey hat, or a stingy brim for that matter, but the outdoors are still green so it can work nicely without appearing dull, and maybe the 2 1/8” brim just works better with my recent haircut.
It’s also one of the only hats on which I really enjoy the feather.
That is not my office.
Anyway here are some pics. Enjoy!
And just for fun:

Nice looking Brit Max. I was interested in your reply to Stefan about the quality. I don't have one yet, maybe I'll look into another English maker.
You have the constitution (and the hats) to withstand the lure of felt. You are a better man than I sir!In Buffalo, no felts before their appointed time.
Thanks guys, this is one of my favorites due to the color.
Good to see that Brent in the sunshine. I knew this one was special when I first saw it. All great hats, but day-um!
There's a hat in this picture?That color blue is a strong favorite of mine; looks close to the 50s Cavanagh my wife wears. Excellent hats!
It whispers Bowen...sweet nothings.
Much needed shade, but scary around the water and those huge Muskies. Incredible hat Max.Stetson 7X CB this afternoon

Two stellar hats today Bowen. I enjoyed both of them.
you and me both! I wish I could put into words how this one feels in hand. I might have to look into making videos on the hats and sharing those
