Good morning hat folks. Thanks for sharing. I have enjoyed the hat parade this morning.

Here are some hats I have worn the past couple days.

A Stetson Stratoliner. Not all Stratoliners are the same. This fedora has a 2 7/8 " brim. I crease the crown "high" to match the brim width.

Hückel "Wien" possibly mid 1950s. The Felt is very light in weight, almost tissue like. I am not sure the source of this one. It could be an early Hückel Weilheim or possibly from Hückel & Co. Wien (a mystery). i tend to think it's an early Hückel Weilheim. The Sweatband seam is taped which I haven't seen before with a Hückel Weilheim Soft Felt. Unfortunately Hückel Weilheim didn't use paper labels possibly due to trademark issues with Tonak. I found this Homburg Hat back in 2023.

Hückel Weilheim Advertising Pocket Mirror Match Holder. Unfortunately the match heads had to be removed for shipping. Possibly from the 1960s. Found this back in 2014.
