Beautiful hat Marcel

Beautiful hat Marcel

Thank you!

It's still busy and I'm short on time, but I do have to dedicate some time
to the fantastic pile of hats the reindeer from the far north have brought for Christmas.
I thought I'd start with one - if not THE - favorite from the bunch:

"Tiger Hat" - "Import" - "Fabricato in Italia" - Homburg "Trento"
with a great felt in a fantastic purple-grey called "Solfuro" = Sulfide;
crown high at centre dent: 11,5 cm; brim at 6-6,5 cm
This hat is in a fantastic near mint condition and the also purplish
silk linning is absolutely wonderful, as the golden imprint logo is.
The size tag is the same as on Daniele's black "La Moda" shop hat.
All the ingredients from the materials to the workmanship to labels
speak a more pre- than post-war language - in my opinion.
But I'm curious what Daniele - the master of Italian hat industry -
has to say about it: Surely he knows even more...

Interesting details—how old do you think that is?

It’s not very old. Dorer’s still makes this hat and I don’t know when they first offered it.

How's the felt, Brent? Is it worth what Dorer's says of itself?

It’s world changing! The only hatter in the known universe who makes 100% beaver felt hats! Steamed with the tears of baby unicorns.

It’s the same as most all decent modern western hatters. It’s nothing special, but it’s done nicely. Not crazy about the brim shape, but it’s the most popular western style right now.

If he is making baby unicorns cry then I call for a boycott!

Did you read the article in the Billionaires magazine where Dorer’s said they are the only hatter in the world making pure beaver hats? Supposedly one of his hats sold for two million dollars…I’m not calling anyone a liar, but I’m going to need some proof.

Congrats Dave. Nice looking 1950s Antilope Mayser. Have you checked for any date mark on the underside of the sweatband?

Just posted a reply in the German and Austrian Hutmachers thread, Dave. I'd still say 1950s, but Steve will know more.
