I got up at 3:30 this morning to bid on this Resistol San Antonio. Paid a lot, but I had to have it.

Fantastic, DD! That's a nice one, and has some age to it. The unreeded sweatband and the shape of the "O" in Resistol are good dating clues.

Wear it in good health.

Ha! I also got up at 3am to check on this one! I'm glad you got it, and that I didn't bid against you!

Very nice DD. Glad to see you get it!! Do you think that is 60's model? Earlier?

Oh yea I didn't notice the unreeded sweat. 1950's you think?

I believe it is early fifties.

I believe so as well. That's an old liner design.

When you get it, perhaps we can see the reorder tag for clues.

I'd have stayed up all night for that one! Congrats DD!

Wow, very nice DD! Tags & all.

I got this Carlsbad. It may be more rare because it's not a velour finish.

Another impulse buy:

I can’t say no to cheap 7 3/4 Resistols.

Thanks guys! Gerry Spence used to wear a Carlsbad I always admired.

This one may be deserving of some Alpaca silver & horse hair over the ribbon. I have several old pieces off some tack but they're all to big.
