Stetson Paddock

[RBH]

I do not follow the Homburg threads and may not be up on all the information.
But I do know there was talk of fedoras being fedoras and homburgs are homburgs.
While that may be basically true this ad from 1932 shows that Stetson did make a hat that could be both.

Does anyone here have a Stetson Paddock?

Interesting. It's supposed to have a bound-edge then, right? This is not a world apart from the way I wear my own, much later (1940s/1950s) Stetson St. Regis homburg; it's creased like a fedora. The main difference is that this hat has a higher, center dented (looks to be) crown, with a wider ribbon.
