I usually only post one new hat a day, but 1.) most of these are not going to end up being permanent residents 2.) I wanted you guys to get a chance to check them out and 3.) I’ve got the day off, so here we are

Makes sense.

F. R. Tripler & Co. by Churchill 7 1/4 - olive green velour - very cool if you don't mind a stingy-brim. I like this one. Definitely does not fit 7 3/8 lol.

Originally from St. Louis, Missouri. I think there is a thread here somewhere.

This one hurts my feelings. My first MacLachlan. Every so often I get my hands on a 58 that makes me want to keep it and let it ride a little high. sigh...

MachLachlan 7 1/4

For sure! Curious as to what conclusions you might make

Jeff, It's similar to this Tonak / Hückel Zephyr Seal Velour of mine. It's possibly early to mid 1950s. Can you take a photo of the left corner of the Paper label?

After taking a few laps around Tampa Bay, this Schoble finally arrived today. A Superfine 5X quality, I believe from the 40's, an amazing hat.

This one's interesting - the first back bow I've encountered in the wild. It also has the worst oxidation on a sweatband reed I've ever seen.
