I figured you were a long standing resident already, Bob. And you were of course, but it wasn't official yet. That's a special one for sure; I only ever see Stetson St. Regis homburgs. Very nice (as is the Borsalino, but that one I know!)

Echter Mayser homburg in grey. Size 58 with the brim at a good 5,5cm and the crown at 11cm at the center dent. A few nicks but it seems hardly ever worn (basting stitches are still on the ribbon). No label under the sweat, so not much to go on. Joh Schnell Nachf. of Koblenz was founded in 1806 (!) and is still around today. The sweatband mentions its 150th anniversary, which would make it 1956, but the sweatband is dated 19-12-1961, which usually means the selling date. Could have sat on the shelf for 5 years, but who would leave a good looking hat like this there? Interesting that the liner is already glued in on this one (German manufacturers did that very early on).

That's a beauty, Stefan. There's something about those basting stitches that says the hat is almost untouched. I love it too when I find a jacket with un-picked pockets. They're like off the shelf new :)
