Good to see you, man. That's a great old Stetson. Hope to see more of it and you in the future.

TAR Thursday (Friday for me, as I'm taking tomorrow). The color on this hat is superb. A rich hue and well-saturated. Just a great hat. Plus I dig this version of the logo.

1940s - I think - J.C. Penney's Marathon in blue.

That is very sweet. My Marathon (50's if I'm not mistaken) has the exact same block, flange and diamond, but a mid ribbon.
You might have spoiled it for me.

Today....i’m not sure how many Mallory’s i have but i know i have a gray one and this one.
The Dallas. Mallory’s take on an OR. Maybe vice versa idk. Pretty much pillowy finger felt.
Be well. Bowen
What a super looking Mallory, B. I just want to feel and crease that felt. It looks as if it would be like putty to mould.

Today.....kinda in a funk head way today. Prob because i’ve let this one languish for 2 or 3 years thinking i’ll send it out to be refreshed. Time’s running out so i’ll make the call.
This ain’t no pretty boy hat. I can only wonder what kinda work the owner did wearing this old toothpick ribbon, dime thick Stetson One Hundred i got from @Dinerman. Probably a Montana rancher i’d guess. After all it’s glory it still shuts up my 7X CB pretty boys.
Be well. Bowen
Heavy sigh.

It's good to see you back. Your posts and your hats have been missed. What a great looking OR. I'd gladly wear that every day.

Thank you buddy. This is my first Beaver brand. I'm used to working with Resistols and Stetsons but I have to say that this particular Beaver Brand is right up there with them as far as quality. It's definitely a nice hat and I love wearing it.
I have 3 Beaver brand now. I am impressed with them all, and size 7 fits like 7 1/8, so they're easy to pick up at auction.
Here's an unpounced one I've been bashing around w/o steam.

Pic three is the flange it arrived with.
