1930s Miller Cowboy Hat
Wide brim, tall crown, thin ribbon, super thin floppy felt. Sort of a sign of things to come- a shift away from the curled brims and wider ribbons.
Unlined with silkscreened crown logo. Lots of imprints on the sweatband.
XXXX beaver custom western
This hat is probably from the 1960s, but it really channels hats of the turn of the century. It has a center creased crown, with a short-ish pencil curled raw edge brim. Sort of a western homburg. The ribbon work is also in the style of an earlier period, wide, but with a bow similar to those found on Stetson Open Roads.
Davis Hats- “The Alamo”
This is a great example of a western fedora. It shows lines from where it was once creased as more of a cattleman, but the blocking and flanging are pure fedora. Dating is a bit more difficult for custom hats, but I’d place this one at sometime in the ’50s.
