A recent acquisition and my contribution to the 'Homburg Nation' thread. This piece's back story is that it belonged to the owner of the Indy 500. It is said he brought back car racing after WW II in 1945. His signature: "Anton 'Tony' Hulman, Jr." (1901-1977). The felt is like clay and is simply described in three words...Mar-va-lous!

Spectacular, Doc! I don’t know how I could have missed this hat…? The old John Cavanagh hats never disappoint.
