Not feeling too stingy yet. Heading out to the store under this Brent I picked up the other day. Has some minor staining, but a nice lid overall.

Wow, lots of incredible hats today.

Thanks Eric.
Thanks sir. I feel honored to have this NOS hat on my hat rack.

This hat is part of a few NOS from the retailer Hurley (hats manufactured by the Wolthausen Hat Company). https://www.thefedoralounge.com/threads/brock-hats.91490/page-2.

BTW: Terrific hat in your last post.

I'm going to have to dig out my blue hat this weekend.

Another beauty, Randall.

EMS "Gloria" Backbow, possibly later 1920s early 1930s. This Wool Soft Felt came with a crease clip (Excelsior) and has a classic look of the time and place. The felt (Ferrum) and ribbon (Veilchen) colors are very interesting shades of Violet. Possibly made by Berlin Gubener Hutfabrik and EMS might be a distributor. I found this Wool Soft Felt back in 2013.

Very cool hat, Steve. Neat that it still has the “basting” stitches still in the ribbon. Oh and Now I have Laura Branigan stuck in my head.

I guess if I ever want to sell that one, I no longer can claim it comes from a smoke-free home (pet-free is also in question) View attachment 570493
Panos, Fantastic! So great to see the Wilke Velour in action. The rust color is striking. Super clothing match too. Also cool time period scenic back drops.

Great photography and hat, Panos. It looks like you found a time machine.

staying home for the holidays this year, so no need for a pre-Stingymas. I can join in the fun. I still don’t have enough to see me through the entirety of it, but here’s my first entry.
A French hat by an unknown maker. The Véritable Feutre de Poil that came to me from Daniele, complete with a sweatband and ribbon by Penumbra Hats.
