Absolutely SCRAMPOPULOUS hats here in the last few days!!

Steve your new addition looks like it just left the store. Incredible!

Moehawk you are to be congratulated on a terrific job crafting that block AND hat!

Dave the sleeping hatter inside you is awakening!! To mold straw without the benefit of a block is tough, but yours is just perfect, man. KUDOS!!

Charlie, Thanks! Fantastic + Excellent Stratoliner on your side!

 

[Daniele Tanto]

Many new hats or olds that are very well aged
This is an english Dunn made by Tonak.

It is a little bit scruffy and NOT my size as I believed from the paper label.

It is a beautiful piece of velour with all the shades of deep brown.

I have to decide what to do with it!

 

[mayserwegener]

It's fantastic! The bow design is nice too!

 

[Daniele Tanto]

I like it very much Steve and thanks for your appreciation, but it is small and I suffer not to have the chance to wear it.

 

[mayserwegener]

I know the feeling. It looks like a Zephyr Seal Velour. I would like to see the inside if possible. Did the paper label mention TONAK?

 

[Daniele Tanto]

Yes, Steve the label mention Tonak.
It is a Tonak label in English language!
You can see the whole bunch of pictures in the TONAK thread.

"Lollar" No Company Mark, size 58cm, Wool, 6 inch Open Crown, 2 1/2 inch Overwelt Brim, Back Bow, small hole at front crease, probably WWII era. The Wool felt is very soft / pliable and light weight. Unfortunately it has a small hole at the front crease (not that noticeable if creased down) but other than that it's in very good condition. The paper label doesn't have any company mark but does have a model name "Lollar" which is a German town. I paid about $20.00 for this hat including shipping and it wears great too!

Very nice Steve.

 

[hatsRme]

A twenty Dollar Lollar?!! HOW on earth do you do it, Steve!? You must have been beyond delighted to open that one...

I share your sizing sadness, Daniele... A DELICIOUS-looking Tonak!

 

[mayserwegener]

John, Thanks!

Charlie, Thanks! It cost more to ship it. Here is a back view open crown (it's a tall one)!

Also discovered it was made by the same company as my EMS (now I am not sure these are company initials) "Gloria".

"Lollar"

EMS "Gloria"

:laugh:
I knew it sounded familiar! So, as we oldsters would say, 10-4, good buddy!

Steve, you're killin' me, sir! Is the "Gloria" the hat shown at the bottom (above)? That lid is BEYOND spectacular.

 

[mayserwegener]

Charlie, Thanks regarding tall violet "Gloria"!

 

[bowlerman]

I'm still seRching for the perfect hat [emoji6]. And on the way came across these two beauties. A dobbs rainbow fished out of the bay,and straight from the antique shop to my head, this brown Portis thin ribbon with an unreeded sweatband in pristine condition:
