I am fairly certain the building didn't survive WWII. Same as the Habig Berlin store.

Mark, Thank you!

Steve, Thanks! That is a great old C.W Borchert hat box! Nathan, Thank you! Steve, replied regarding the addresses but here are some photos of a C. W. Borchert 157 Friedrichstrasse Berlin. W. Stiff Felt of mine.

Reggie, Thank you! I agree! :)

Borchert Berlin W., date stamped August 6, 1952. I found this hat back in 2011 and I have always enjoyed wearing it. I am not sure who made this hat for Borchert. C.W. Borchert goes way back and they change locations after WWII. Borchert Berlin W. carton that came with another hat...

Alan, Thank you! Really fantastic antique Kippah with a special meaning! Happy Passover!

Eric, Great to see the Janyška!

Ludwig Skriwanek Graz, Hutfabrikation, possibly 1930s. The Wool Felt is a Melange which you can see clearer in the 2nd and 5th photos. I found this Wool Stiff Felt back in 2019. Skriwanek - Hüte catalog (possibly 1920s)...

Joe, Thank you!

Thanks! :)

Echter Borsalino "Sandurbar" and the color is "Ossido", possibly 1920s. This Soft Felt was made for the German market. It originally had a crown patch and is in very good condition. I was lucky to find this Soft Felt back in 2022. Old Borsalino Soft Felts like this one are rare finds...

Reggie, Thanks! Great look with your Stetson Noble!

Steve, Belated Thank you! Fantastic looking Borsalino Agave, Qualitá Suprema from you this past Thursday!

Thank you!

Wegener "Haarhut" possibly 1930s. I rarely come across this time period or older R. & M. Wegener Soft or Stiff Felts, especially in my size. I found this Soft Felt back in 2018.
