1950s 3X Stetson made for VIP members of the American Royal Livestock & Horse Show in Kansas City.
The sweatband has been replaced with a comfy new one but I have the original stamped Emery Bird Thayer which was a department store in KC.
Beautiful piece.
Always loved the embroidered Last Drop liner

Good to see you, Ant. Take a look at this post and read on down to see a couple more American Royal labeled hats.

Added a 2nd Resistol Shantung Panama aka the vinyl coated paper.

Tycoon Sz 7 / 3 1/2 inch brim is the style I love w teardrop pinch front. Almost like new & probably from the 90's.
$20 plus an outrageous $30 shipping... Oh well, dimensions LXW were spot on so it should fit.

Glam shots... Really should be very useful for when a large 4 plus in brim is too much.

$47 new

I canceled the hat. The more I looked at the flat straw & the weave it just seemed to become flimsy. I canceled in a few hours & it went through. I really don't want hats that are not returnable if they are too big or not of the quality I thought. I suppose it would have been a great hat for a hot sunny day. Really was very decent but I saw another Shantung Panama that looked like a better material & weave even though they are the same grade.
The right just looks like it has more body & it definitely in a better shape teardrop. I thought it also had a finer weave & the spacing could make the hat cooler. These hats are vinyl coated & the paper with vinyl coating could make it feel like wearing a plastic hat. The 20X Conely last photo I ordered has lots of airholes but I'm more fond of the tear drop than the cattleman crease. I really need to stop & step back to get my bearings.
