This video contains sections of a very rare 1941 film by Janyška & Cie. of hand felt making methods (the only historical visual record). Starts around 5:10 and ends 9:45. The film was supposedly restored (see photo below) but I haven't had any luck finding a copy. The video also contains Panizza hat production from 1951. It's definitely worth taking a look at.

You can see it here for now. I would highly recommend taking a look.

At 8:47 you can see the pentagon table. The 1941 Janyška & Cie. film hand felting sections (5:10 to 9:45) are very special / rare.

PM me for the link.

Thanks! By the way the 1951 Panizza mechanized fabrication section is also fantastic. One important thing it doesn't mention is the Auto / Manual Brushing for Velour finishes.
