Thank you. Looking through those was a fantastic flashback to when these hats really meant something to most folks. I'd buy one today for the dollar they asked then.

This is one of the reincarnations of "Taylor Bothers & Co." whose 1887 catalog I posted above. They seemed to add and subtract partners every few years.......

This Billing 1911.

They also were the original makers of 'Kingsbury" Hats...

I have both a box (yet another incarnation: Parrotte, Montyre and Co"), and an early model of one of the "Kingsbury" hats in my collection which I show at the end of this post.

I also have yet another catalog from them I will be posting in the future.
