For the life of me, I can't seem to remember the manufacturer of this one, which I don't have with me at the moment. 50's.

Very stunning example, flute. That has got to be nicest grosgrain I've ever seen.

Calling all homburg wearers. I look absolutely awful in homburgs, but I came across one that I think is special. I put it on Ebay. I'd love it if in ended up on a loungers head. Here are a few pictures. I'm not the most experienced with hats, but I've been bitten by that bug and have purchased probably 20 hats in 3 months. Yikes. My wife keeps groaning every time she walks in and sees a new hat hanging off the hat rack. There are worse vices. Aren't there?

Nice homburg... I've seen mostly top hats and derbies from this Boston haberdashery. Not knowing if the crown protector is paper or plastic, I would guess post-war on this one. Top hat markings below:

Homburgs are fine hats! No need to laugh at 'em! They just take some getting used to, more so that a fedora, but once you do, you want more!

Here are my two. The left one is a 30s Campbell, and the right is a 30s/40s Knox.

The hats are great. I love how homburgs look. I'd never laugh at THEM. I mean of me in one. See below.
There you have it!

Too kind. Again, I just don't think I have the head for a homburg. I'll stick to my fedoras.

Actually Bruno, I think the proportions work quite well on you. Although it's probably better matched with a different color sweater.

Everybody is a critic! Luckily I wasn't on my way to the opera. (Actually on my way to the ice rink with the kids. I did not wear the homburg to the ice rink 
)
