Excellent looking hat Justin. A name like Wilson Distinctive Styles seems like a retailer, might be another maker branded for Wilson. Hope you find some clues.

Was the high bidder on this Marathon earlier today. Seller says 1940s but I have no idea. Can’t find much information on dating these Penny Marathons. It looks pretty dirty. Hoping it cleans up.

I couldn’t find a thread on Marathons. Maybe one should be started?

Justin, that was a brand made by Mallory. I have some sales planners that were posted in the Mallory Madness thread that showed hats from Wilson. Unfortunately those pics were lost in the photobucket debacle. I will be rebuilding that thread during the winter. Should be a great hat!

See this thread for a little more on this -> http://www.thefedoralounge.com/thre...bel-hats-for-other-retailers-companies.52621/

Won this lot. Both have moth nibbles, but I'm interested in the vita which should fit, over the smaller sized stratoliner

Somebody who is 7 1/8 should BIN this. It's a stupid good deal. I don't know if the hat matches the box, but this is a cool Stetson heathered felt:

This seller has some great deals on vintage clothing. I'm not sure if I'm a fan of this cut, but I can recognize the steal of a purchase to be had here.

I can't believe it's still sitting there. If I were a size smaller, it would be gone. Heck, the box alone is pretty rare.
