Brüder Böhm Neutitschein Velour possibly late 1920s. This one was made for the French market.

Fantastic large print dating from the 1930s showing the Vienna and Neutitschein / Novy Jicin (two factories one for felt hoods and one for finished hats) factories. Jonathan the grandson of Victor Böhm owner and chief inventor at Brüder Böhm Wien, Neutitschein / Novy Jicin sent me this photo back in 2015.

Some very nice Italian tops there, Stefan!
That Borsa bowler certainly seems to have the “it” factor. Looks great, and great on you. How old is it?

View attachment 301229 Kinda odd to me, but this hard bowler is the most comfortable hat I own.
And the oldest too. A great hat for NHD, I think.
Another funny thing about this bowler is that most bowlers have pretty much the same look, yet of the many I’ve put on it’s the only one that I like, and like a lot.

Hey Randall, you’re one of those lucky guys that looks awesome in any hat. You look right at home under that bowler.

Thanks, Rick!
However, I can’t rock a pork pie, but you sure can. If you’re not a blues musician, you shoulda been!
