Just going off the one pic it does look like it may be a pre-war hat, but No. 1 quality was a long running designation off and on until the 60's or so, IIRC. Any inside tags?

I don't have the hat to look for a tag. It's just from an online photo. Were those sweatbands that have somewhat of a diamond texture used during any particular timeframe that anyone knows of?

That logo stoped right around 1940 ish. That sweatband looks a lot older. Just seeing what you are showing, I’d guess turn of the century…all subject to change…put up more photos and don’t crop any of them…

Here's another picture. Again, I don't have the actual hat. These are just pictures from the online sale. It's more than I want to spend but one day I'd like to get my hands on an early Stetson Boss of the Plains.
