Excellent! How shall we begin the project? I’ve been trying to collect photos of all the crown labels. it would be cool to have a place to sort those photos and crowd source some additional data. (just noticed the add attachment button, gonna try and post a pic of what I believe to be the first version of the large crown label) Attachments:

OK now I'm jealous that you were in the Don Mills Store Long time ago, I don't remember much about it except it took me forever to pick a style of hat. Here's a picture of my lovely bride outside the Don Mills store with her new Air Flow in August 2005. Attachments:

So it’s a fair assessment that the Roman numerals on some crown labels can be, at least, loosely associated with date of manufacture. MMIV could indicate that your hat was made in 2004. Very cool data. Thanks
