It should have a tag like pictured below, which has obviously been removed. The only Resistol OR clone which has been identified & recorded so far with a 2-1/2" BE brim like your's is the Herdsman. The Plains has a 2-1/2" RE brim, therefore is not a clone.I'm not sure about dating or model numbers. This is what's under the sweatband. Maybe you can tell me.View attachment 179136 View attachment 179137 View attachment 179138

Good morning. A vintage Stetson Vita-Felt Playboy was my hat choice this morning. This un-reeded fedora's felt is very soft and malleable.
The gray felt is everything that vintage felt is desired to be. The ribbon, sweat and liner show patina that comes with wear. This clean, vintage hat is a joy to wear.
Best, Eric -
So nice, Eric! Those unreeded sweatbands are like warm socks. They’re great! That one is a prime cut.

I like the style of that Cavanagh Milan. I have a similar looking Dobbs Panama in dark blue.
You can tell that Randoph supplies the USAF just by looking at the model names.
I like the "Yeager" shades best; Chuck Yeager (from the German "Jäger" = hunter) was a bad-ass fighter- and test-pilot.

Ha yea I forgot about the Nasty Boys. You have seen it before haven't you. I don't think Bauer has gotten into a fist fight with his manager yet as Dibs did. LOLBeen there, done that.
They say Pedro Borbon used to throw them over the center field wall from home plate.

I heard Mark Gubiza could throw them over the CF wall from home as well. Damn if I just could have had an arm like that.........Been there, done that.

That's a darn good price compared to the online-shop offer.

Wonderful hat! And until you mentioned Benny, I had never noticed the resemblance. Something about your smiles...

Yeah, and Dibs also lost it one day and heaved one from the mound into the outfield stands and hit some lady. She sued.
Taking on Piniella was bold. And stupid.

The hot weather changed to more cooler weather today. Hope it changes back before the autumn kicks in.
However, in the meantime, it allowed me to wear this early 1960s Borsalino.
Brim curled to perfection... lovely!

Incredible!! Too funny, that Benny would be wearing MY shirt...
I must admit, Alan, it took me a second look to sort it all out. You are amazing!!
The Byer Rolnick is a beauty; gives me memories of my dad. It could be even a bit more recent.
Pop, June 1971... SEE!!
Thanks!
