Brüder Böhm, Daniel Zikeli Wien "Rekord", 58cm possibly later 1950s. Based on the paper label I believe this Homburg was made by Brüder Böhm and sourced by Daniel Zikeli Wien.
I found Daniel Zikeli in the "Austrian Hat Industry Guide (1926)" as Daniel Zikely Wwe. (Widow) so he...

Echter Borsalino possibly 1930s. The Felt is Mélange a has a somewhat Soleil Velour like finish. It's difficult to find this era and older Borsalino Soft Felts with specialty finishes. I found this Soft Felt back in 2021.

Brent, Super find! Richard Schwarz Wien most likely sourced this hat. I can't tell the source but here is a Richard Schwarz Wien (not a Velour) found a while ago by Justin that that was sourced from Carl Ceschka Wien...

Rockel "Echter Rockel Velour"possibly late 1920s early 1930s. This is probably my earliest Rockel. I found this great looking Velour back in 2021.

Echter Borsalino "Fico" "Lama", date stamped May 18, 1929. This is hat from my rare 2015 find of three circa 1929 Max Eckard Berlin, Echter Borsalino Soft Felt Hats. It's one of my finest + special finds.
This is an interesting thread I put together on Borsalino Soft and Stiff Felt Hats with Celled Paper Labels.

It's interesting that it has English sizing on the individual size stamp. Not sure I have seen a Bulgarian market Borsalino with anything other than a French Point size on the main paper label or individual size stamp. Would be interesting to know if there is a size label on the sweatband.
