Cactus Mike Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Picked up this old Beaver Brand open crown, flat brim hat on a recent trip to Arizona. Don’t know how old it is, but it’s in great shape and cleaned up nicely. Anyone else wearing a Beaver Brand? They date back to 1860 and went out of business about 10 years ago.

J-BAR #18287 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 If you don’t sell them to Kris, get ‘em wet and put them in a hat jack or wear them until they dry out. 1/8” stretch is pretty easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hat appears to be a size 6 7/8. 5” crown and 4” brim. Cattleman’s crease. No holes or stains. 10X. Don’t know what it’s worth. PM me an offer I can’t refuse.

Calamity Kris Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Well it arrived today. It's beautiful and fits perfectly. Funds are going in the mail in the morning. Interesting side note. 35 years ago, I worked at the store this hat was purchased from. Thank you very much, UB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
