1930s Stetson Standard Quality
Olive green felt, molds like clay
The sweatband is about toast, as it is tearing apart in many places. will probably replace it before this one has any real head time

Those old ones definitely shape a lot differently!
Have you thought about getting a leather stamp for replacement hat bands? One where you can put the original model, maybe even write it in. It might sound silly, but buyers over on eBay would put value in your certification. Or at least I would, definitely over a blank sweatband.
I'm considering a way to mark my 1937 factory reject Open Road since the sweatband went to pieces but I'd still like to keep some note of it's origin.

PS That doesn't look like Ft Campbell

This is just fantastic Justin. Such an unusual old Nutria time capsule. It reminds me of one Alan posted sometime back. Most excellent. Thanks for sharing.

I saw one go up late at night for that for that price! How does it feel? I was wondering, is the sweatband a lost cause?

Incredible Bob! Love the provenance with the vintage advertisement. It has all the bells and whistles of an early hat. It is great that the tip logo is so nice. I enjoyed this one.Circa 1929 Stetson Select Quality "Tropic Weight".
