Very nice Max. I have one and really enjoy it. But it’s like 4 sizes to small right? Or is it for your wife or daughter?
Very lovely, Max. +1 on what Bill said.

I don’t think I’ve seen this Stratoliner before. Can’t say I’m a fan of the sweatband. The seller states it’s fur felt, and if it was my size I’d have bought it even though it’s a newer hat.

Isn't that a wool Strat? It looks like the wool version Stetson has on their site.

I don’t know. The seller states “fur felt,” but I don’t know and I’m not so curious as to buy a hat several sizes too small for me.

Yes, thanks for that, that's what I meant, I know it was a lighter version of it and just ran through the description. I knew I seen it before on their site.
Personally, I wouldn't spend that amount of money on this hat, for $10.00 more you can buy the full fledged Strat.

I got a Stetson 300! It is a modern hat (it was gifted to the seller's Godfather, in 1969), but I am hopeful the felt will be good.
Here is Stephen's account on the hat's procedence:
He told me he was invited to be in a wedding party
1969
His friend was a judge from the New York area and married a girl from texas
He showed up at the wedding in his Tuxedo and was presented the hat along with the other groomsmen as a gift for being part of the wedding party.
When he got back to Canada he covered it with plastic and never wore it again.
New old stock he called it lol
So, I feel lucky to have acquired it!
