P. & C. Habig Wien "Export Qualität", 59cm, probably late 1950s. This is a NOS from Hut Brömme Nürnberg. Unique color with contrasting band and binding.
Congratz. I would love to have an 100 but the one I want seems to never ever been made.Finally getting around to posting this one. Its been around for several days. I've been wanting a Stetson 100 for some time and they rarely come up in my size. After looking for several years for an OR, two pop up in about ten days. I am officially outa the market place for awhile.
Like the hat, really like the self portrait. Looks like a publicity still for a 1940s or 50s movie.About 4 years later, the Parkshire changed hands via eBay. I'm the new owner and very happy with it. It appears Lizardberry changed the creases slightly by sharpening them up, but they look good and I've left them as-is. Very fine hat, has an early (pre-1950s?) look and feel to it and I'm very happy to have it. I wore it for a self portrait I made in PS, and I took it out for a spin today. Definitely one for the favorites pile.

Such a wonderful piece of history. And touchable as well. Nice.C. G. Wilke, Brim Over Welt 2 1/2 inches , Crown Open 6 inches, paper label missing, measures 57cm, probably 1920s. I don't see any sign of a tip patch so might have had a liner. The Velour is really fantastic but it has some nicks.

That hat's the cat's meow, Alan.
Looks great. Love the finish, color and brim treatment. Pretty much the whole hat Alan.
I like the textures.
