    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Stefan, Thanks! It's definitely a lot of felt. :) Beautiful series of hats from you! I was happy to see the STECO "Echt Velour". I actually have a STECO Stiff Felt on the way.

    Carl Ceschka Wien, Back Bow, possibly 1920s and a recent find. It has a very wide brim so it might be considered an Artist Hat / Sombrero. The Velour is more Soleil like and of a heavier weight yet super pliable. Plate: Carl Ceschka and sons, La Capelo, Vienna (1935)...

    Wayne, Thank you posting this B.B. "Ultima" too. I don't have record of it. It's a super looking Back Bow Velour. I also have this B.B. "Ultima" that I got from Panos. Not sure why I put later 1930s. It could be based on the paper label. I will have to look into this again...

    Wayne, This B.B. "Ultima" Is really fantastic. Great Velour color and finish. It looks like it could be from the later 1920s but could be a bit later.

    Wayne, Super! This is a fantastic "NOVA" Velour. I believe the "NOVA" Velour was unique to the French market. Great Velour finish and color. Also great form and wide Band / Bow. It's possible that it's later 1920s early 1930s. The paper label is a Type 8...

    Wayne, I don't believe I have encountered a Polish market JHS before. I wonder if it was made or came out of the JHS Skoczów, Poland factory (became PolkaP)? It's a great looking Prima Velour. Really like the color and finish. It has a Type 2 paper label...

    Wayne, Really great to see a Japanese market JHS. It's a really fantastic Alpha Velour. Would it be possible to take a sharper photo of the paper label? This is definitely a unique paper label format. Having the descriptions in English is very helpful.

    Niky, I have come across some vintage Szaszi hats but nothing 1950s or older that I can remember. I did find a Hermann Szazsi listed at VII., Mariahilferstraße 4 in the Austrian Hat Industry Guide (1926). I will see what else I can find. Hermann Szaszi is listed here under Wien...

    Niky, Nice to meet you! I have probably come across some Wolf-Hüte hats but my focus is on Vintage / Antique Austrian Hat Companies. I will see what I can find on Wolf-Hüte. Your Wolf-Hüte hat looks like a Velour so possibly Hare although it could be rabbit or a blend of hare and rabbit...

    Marcel, As I said to Stefan, I am afraid to ask how much the seller is asking. :) It is a real beauty.

    Stefan, That is a real beauty! Really difficult to find old P. & C. Habig Wien Soft Felts. I am afraid to ask how much the seller is asking. :)

    Stefan, Thank you! I am really happy about this especially since it turned out to be a Bossi Wien trademark. :)

    S. & J. Fraenkel Wien "Extra Qualität" possibly later 1930s. This is a fantastic Stone Gray Soleil Velour with high gloss and made for the Belgium market. I found this Velour back in 2015. Fraenkel Wien, Celluloid Advert Card by Prager & Lojda Berlin S.W., 9 cm x 6 cm, possibly...
