I hadn't seen one either until just this week. When I saw it, I knew I had to find one. Must be pretty scarce though.

Wow, very nice goal to find one. Only sold in NE for the Centennial, I wonder how many are out there? No Byer-Rolnick markings either.

I am from Illinois....but would not mind finding one in my size.............I wonder if any other state hats like this exist???

Very cool, Scott. That would be a great find. Of course, you'll need a pair of these to go with it.

Where in Illinois, Mark? I've lived in Chicago so long, I feel like I'm from Illinois myself

I don't know. I didn't know this existed until this week when I saw it on ebay. I considered bidding on it, but didn't want to get into a bidding war for a hat that isn't my size. I am of course now having second thoughts.........probably should have bid on it. May not see another.

Well, that's the rub. I have farm toys from when I was a kid and new ones. Firearms I haven't shot. Knives that set in a cabinet. All gathering dust.......so why didn't I bid on the hat? LOLWell......unlike me....You were being practical.

Whoa, those are beauties though!
Perry, in the late 40's ACME Boots commissioned Lucchese to build a boot for all the states to be used in a nationwide ad campaign. It took two years or so for the design and construction of the boots. Through theft and loss, only 10 or 12 pair are known to remain.
I have never seen a FL pair but they are available. See below.
That ain't nothing.
