Found this at an antique store right next to one of those cheap Walmart Trilbys, and I recognized it for what it was (obviously), a Stetson. It was for sale for 8$.

There's possibly a hat expert browsing user sub this very moment, but they're also probably a mod in a hat specific subreddit...

Hey, I submitted an old photograph some time back wondering who was in it... and imgur nailed it.

This place is definitely crawling with experts in wildly hyper specific things. I'm interested in seeing how this unfolds
