Anton Peschel Neutitschein (APN) possibly mid 1930s late 1920s. This is the only Anton Peschel Neutitschein Stiff Felt I have and as far as I know the only one here on the FL. I don't believe I have encountered another one.

The above APN Stiff Felt has the same APN Crest.

I alternate between two modern Stratoliners, the low-priced Strat in silver belly that is sort of pinkish, and the Pure (beaver) in alabaster. My fancier hats including Borsalinos, Beaver Brand customs, and Brass Rooster customs, stay in the hat closet. I still need to cover my head, but feel too depressed to get flashy with my nicer hats.

I did start wearing my Open Road with a slight brim modification every once in a while.

(Unlike others, I happen to like a good block and a stiffer hat with a brim that has a good snap.)

Not a fan of the virus culture we have now....

Late 40s "San All" 3X, 6 1/2 x 4", 53 block, no taper ; )
Substantial yet luscious felt that reminds me both of an old Nutria western I have and of both my RD Westerns. Wear this around all day then put on an OR? Feels like you're wearing a stingy. Sly's been with us since he was 7 weeks old. He'll be 17 on Mother's Day. Good Cat.

Great hat! and Great cat! I've got a Sly, too. He's a tuxedo, and come to think of it, that looks a lot like a Stetson western I picked up a few summers ago. Nice.

Thank you, man,
Very cool pics above! We've "all" been spending a lot of time in our home studious I think and except for the occasional wedding job that requires it (most I play do not) I haven't worn a tux since I played the ships and that was another lifetime ago!
Sly's been a great cat .. extra toes all around, and when he was younger he was a bruiser.

Joe, Thank you! Your Royal Crest "Fine Quality" looks great! I also like Mystery Hats . I have good many of them and on the rare a occasion I am able to solve a mystery. It usually happens totally by accident.
Thanks Steve.... most of these nine are only a mystery in that I had no idea what would be in the box. I’m just having a bit of fun with the reveal. This one though does double as also being an unknown brand.

I missed this yesterday. Wow! Whatta hat! The cat ain't bad either.

Decided on a 50’s 3X today. Really like this hat. Brim not too big but big enough, and a comfortably hat to wear.

I love the 3Xs I have from this era. Great looking hat and you wear it well.

I would be interested in seeing your Alabaster Modern Stratoliner. I have never seen that color before.
