I think the name is Monsieur Buttles or could even be Buttler. The Hotel Ritz part is very clear. Underneath there is the original order: 1 smoking noir. 1 berét feutre.
So the box originally contained two hats: the tuxedo hat and a fur felt beret.
Wow, you've got good eyes Stefan. I just couldn't make out the letters. Nicely deciphered, sir.

Funny, the porkpie was the one that caught my eye, too.

I think that porkpie was some quality felt.

Great pics, Michael. The band gets an extra round of applause for that hat-rack on stage from the lounge.
Thanks Stefan.

Heavy wind and rains today (again). The Robert Heath was on service once more, along with the Burberry trench.

You are looking set for the wind. The 'burg and trench are a great combo.

Michael, never listen to your sister again [emoji4]

Ha ha, I seldom do. great look with the bowler last night.

Great shape to that one, and the ... Claret? ... Pug is perfect.

Thanks. Might be a bit oxidized, but in the claret family.

Thanks all,
Michael

And what do you think it says to the left of the number 2000, Stefan?

Yesterday was hot and humid, enough for my montecristi ultrafino.
I couldn’t complain about the fourth Steinway on which I’ve gotten to perform over the past few weeks.

Wearing my Optimo Montecristi again this year for the final of the French Open. Since I can't be at the stadium, I am wearing my Optimo Montecristi and imagining I'm there with the rest of 'em.

That Optimo deserves a place in the crowd at Roland Garros, Max. Very stylish.

Your Montecristi just adds to the coolness of that Steinway, Jeff. Nice looking ribbon, too.

It's interesting; my phone is set for auto brightness and changes in different lighting. I thought it only changed the amount of light, not the light spectrum, but when I saw your post this morning I was in the car as my wife was driving. That band had a very much more rusty color than it apeared yesterday.
I returned to this thread just now, inside my house, and Rustoleum painted your pugaree!
I thought the difficulty in catching colors to share was all in the lighting, shadows and contrast at the photographing end. It isn't so simple.
