I’m hoping that’s the case. There is a blocking tag that’s mostly obscured by the liner. maybe that will hold some clue as to when it was made? I need to pull the liner off to straighten it up anyway. Thanks for your help.

Thanks. I got it on eBay for a ridiculously low price so I took a chance on it.

Thanks a lot for the article, The business card and the advertisement. Do you happen to own a hat by Bill Taylor?

This hat was made by Bill Taylor hat manufacturing company in Cleveland. It’s very well made. My best guess is it’s probably from the 50s. I’ve never heard of this company and I don’t seem to be able to find much out on the Internet. Anybody know anything about Bill Taylor?

Nice to see the Dobbs in it new home (with Chugg). It should be perfect for Savannah.

Can anyone tell me if the Stetson Premier or the Medalist was supposed to be their top of the line?

Thanks, Bill. I think Art worked really hard on this one. I wanted to show his work.

Art did this incredible job restoring this Late '30's/Early '40's Dobbs Fedora. My new favorite winter hat. Thank You, Art!

Great to hear! Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks again. Some interesting stuff on the hat maker. I can't find any pictures of a similar hat or label so its hard to guess a date. It's definitely pre-'50's though.
