S. J. Fraenkel Wien, "600", 58 cm possibly late 1950s. This is my second S. J. Fraenkel Wien Homburg Hat find in my size range and made for Otto Matt Hutmachermeister Bregenz. The black Felt is of a medium weight and has a soft hand. Great form with medium width Band and a slightly offset Bow. The overall condition is excellent,

Nice to see one of these, Steve. Very tough to find. Good to see some homburgs popping up again.

This has been posted before by Marcel @Pellie in one thread or another. It is not his size, so he kindly sent it to me.
Hückel Mercur homburg in black. Size 56 with the bound brim at 6cm and the crown at a generous 11,5cm at the center dent (though it doesn't look it). I have plenty of black homburgs but none of them were by Hückel, so a nice addition.

Very nice, Steve. Hard to find these Fraenkel hats.

Hückel homburg black. Only a sizelabel inside, so not sure about the age. Don't know either where the number 2150/3 stands for. It's a very modest homburg. The crown is not that big/high. It's in a 100% mint condition. Felt is great. Payed 10 euro's for it, so i don't complain at all

Yes sir, a beautiful homburg.

Randy, Thank you!

Panizza Fausto homburg in Palladio (grey). Size 57 with the bound brim at a good 6cm and the crown at 11cm at the center dent. A few small moth nibbles at the crown but other than that as good as new. Fausto wasn't a trademark that I have found in the registry for Panizza, so can't say anything else about that. Wonderful classic homburg and Panizza at their finest.

Nice. The size tag looks like it was printed yesterday.
