Steve, Thank you! Yes, I was surprised when I saw it.Most excellent, Steve. It's always nice to find a favourite maker with features you don't often see in their hats.
Great find!

As Steve said: Most excellent! Congrats, Steve!J. Hückel´s Söhne "Plume", FP 5 3/4, 160 grams, possibly early 1930s. Great Form and Finish. Striking Liner Design that I have never seen before from JHS. Same with the Sweatband type and the Stitched in Liner which is not common with Stiff Felt Hats.

Randy, Thanks!A very distinctive bowler. The liner is exquisite.
WOW, I like this one a LOT!Carl Ceschka Wien "Biber", 58 cm possibly early 1930s. This is my first Carl Ceska Wien Stiff Felt and it's overall fantastic. The Beaver Felt has a great finish the Bow design is striking. The overall condition is excellent. It came from a Slovenian Seller so that was a first. I was really happy to find this Stiff Felt.

John Lofgren Monkey Boots Shinki Horsebuttt - $1,136 The classic monkey boot silhouette in an incredibly rich Shinki russet horse leather.
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - $395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks.
Schott 568 Vandals Jacket - $1,250 The classic Perfecto motorcycle jacket, in a very special limited-edition Schott double rider style. Nice catch, Stefan. You can't go wrong with Moores.Moores bowler in grey. Size 57 with the bound brim at 5cm and the crown at 12cm. No label inisde the hat. I try to pick up bowlers if they are a different colour than black and I was thinking this could maybe be nice for one of our members here. The hat fits me fine, but would probably be too small for the size 57 and a smidge members of the lounge. Wha
