    Echter Borsalino "Export Qualität" "Ecosca" possibly mid to later 1950s and a recent arrival.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Thanks! Yes, the wind cord doesn't have a button and the cord has no elasticity. What's funny is I don't have an example of a German market Borsalino with a newer type wind cord. :)

    Thank you for posting the photo. The reason I asked is Mayser used a similar foil stamp in probably the same time period as your Stetson (see photo). I think it's highly likely Mayser made your Stetson and Overland Wien sourced from Mayser. Looking forward to seeing your P. & C. Habig Wien...

    Ulrich, Super find! I am not sure what company made this Stetson or the exact time period (it's most likely 1970s or later). What is interesting is Brent ("Deadlyhandsom" who liked your post) also recently found a Oberwalder Wien (not a Stetson) Homburg on Ebay (see link below). Oberwalder...

    Bob, I haven't been able to find patent info on "Ventilo". This hat is definitely early 1940s most likely 1930s because the P. & C. Habig Berlin Store at Friedrichstrasse 82a did not survive WWII. This Soft Felt was made at the P. & C. Habig Wien factory for the P. & C. Habig Berlin Store at...
