Nope, but I did get the Stetson Sovereign!

GWD, Nice catch on that Sovereign! Looks like a nice addition to your collection.

Now we're talkin', GWD! Looks like this one may well go back a ways (and, therefore, may be a helpful clue in terms of guaging how long ago the "Sovereign" was in use as a quality type).

Is that a green ribbon on brown felt? Let us know. Oh, and the price isn't too bad either.

Well done! :eusa_clap

Cheers,

Are you kidding me?

Nope, but I did get the Stetson Sovereign!

That "Sovereign" went for under $10 ? Wow !!!

I was watching that poorly listed "Fovereign".....great snag.

 

[GWD]

The Last Sovereign I "flipped" was sold at the Stetson Factory Store it had the same exact liner and was dated 1949. Does that help?

I won this 7 5/8 Stetson Twenty on OFAS a couple of days ago. Looking forward to having this one in my hands.

This Stetson Twenty finally arrived today. The pictures posted in the auction do not do it justice. With the exception of some wear to the imprinting on the sweatband, this hat looks like it was never worn. The crown is still open with no sign of any crease, indent, bash, etc. whatsoever. Fits like a glove! I'll post better pictures soon.

^Congrats! It's always great to have expectations actually exceeded. Look forward to seeing it creased and in action.

 

[jimmy the lid]

Very nice, Carter. Well done! :eusa_clap

Cheers,

[GWD]

Very Nice Carter! Congratulations! Can you please take some close up pictures of the sweatband and liner for my research project?

 

[carter]

GWD, I'll be certain to get the pictures you need. I have some more to take for you as well. There's a Nutria Quality derby on it's way here in the morning.

Here's a 3x Casulaire: yet another model I had never seen.

BTW, I'm not the winning bidder, despite the similarities in name.

 

[Lefty]

Only $52 for an Imperial (when you factor in the high shipping cost). Of course, you can't see the mothing in the photos.

Stetson 100 for $188 (after shipping).

I was at $175.00. Great hat.

I pulled the trigger on the BIN this morning on this Clear Beaver Quality Stetson Beaver 50.

[Lefty]

I thought it was going to end up selling for just pennies over its original price. Still, it only jumped around $75 in the final minute.

I think the winning bidder must have had a top of $200.00or more.

I saw that one, I thought it was a great hat for that price. Good job. Now you can join the Non OR OR club!
