The Resistol Roundup
Yes, Dobbs too. I am not sure or I can't remember who had the license. I agree many Americans after the WWII.. My friend that owns a hat store in Augsburg said the Stetson - Mayser Hats sold at a higher price so didn't sell well.- mayserwegener

German & Austrian Hutmachers
Stefan, Thanks! I haven't seen a non black Resistol Homburg Hat but my guess is they had them because Wegener had brown, gray and blue Homburg Hats. Could be that there were far less Resistol - Wegener Homburg Hats and black was by far the most common color. That's just a guess. :)- mayserwegener

Knox Boater Hat Mystery
The Hat Maker Kurt Wismer still makes Yeddo hats (Röhrlihüte). He is most likely the only one making them. :)- mayserwegener
