That is stunning inside and out!!"NEUHEIT" "SPITZENKLASSE" "EXTRA FEIN" Velour, possibly 1930s. I haven't worn this one in awhile but it's one my favorites. Really interesting liner design with reeded pipping. I can't say for sure but I have a strong feeling it was made by Friedrich Steinberg Herrmann & Co. Hutfabrik Luckenwalde / STECO.

Again and again: wonderful hat, Steve! In fact, so much depends on experience (and you have a lot of it!), so that you get a feel for things and then you can't explain some of them (you often read that in Daniele's posts, for example) . With this “very likely STECO” I can even understand the feeling..."NEUHEIT" "SPITZENKLASSE" "EXTRA FEIN" Velour, possibly 1930s. I haven't worn this one in awhile but it's one my favorites.

Wow Tim. Sorry to hear it. Glad they got you pinned back together. Hope you get healed up soon.I have been enjoying all of the great hats y'all have posted. This is the first place I go to in the morning to get my hat fix and I try to add to the conversation when I can. My latest is this Portis Tissue Weight with Swans Down Finish. I've had it since Monday but haven't felt like posting pictures...just content to hit the Like button on all y'alls hats.
* back story is I fell on the ice Sunday and broke my arm. Surgeon patched large bone in my forearm back together with steel plates and screws and luckily my wrist was intact. Last few days Percocet was my little buddy every 4 hours, just like clock work. This morning the swelling is starting to subside and Ibuprofen is pain reliever of choice along with the NSAID benefits.
