Möckel's Ultra! "Ideal", size 57cm, probably 1920s. This is a really beautifully made Melone! Unfortunately the sweatband reed casing was damaged during shipping because the hat was near mint condition. PH. Möckel Hutfabrik, Homburg vor der Höhe was the hat company that made the original Homburg for Edward VII. The company went out of business in 1932. It came with an old box (Lange's Hutgeschäft Frankfurt a/M.) which I am not sure is original to the hat. There was a silk pad (also Lange's Hutgeschäft Frankfurt a/M.) so I think might have originally contained a silk Top Hat.

Steve I'm not a fan of bowler.....
This one is particular and the luxurious box and accessories make it precious.
By the way I like more the last hat you wore

Hit some local thrift stores while running errands. One store was having a promotional sale - pull a plastic egg out of a bowl and get the percentage discount placed in the egg. I pulled a 15% discount.

Resistol - $10.00, marked down to $8.50 with the discount.

And a cheap cotton flat cap for $12.00, down to $10.20 with the discount.

The pink ribbon in the back of the cap makes me think it's supposed to be for women, but it fits me and was in good shape so I bought it.

Edit: Oh my gosh! Just opened this thread on my laptop and was shocked at the size of the attached photos. Seems that Tapatalk doesn't size them down at all when posting from my phone. Gotta remember to try to make them smaller before uploading. My apologies, everyone.

Great finds Steve, couvrir and Mark.
Mark you should post that Resistol in the "Ohio, Heart of it all" thread.

Saw a Stetson 10x in silverbelly yesterday while thrifting. Was in nice shape, but the seller wanted $155 for it. Someone else will have to get that one. Another vendor had a recent production 4x beaver quality in my size, but I wasn't willing to pay $70 for it and the vendor was only willing to come down a couple of bucks for cash. Again, wanted it, but walked out without it. Figured a new one at Horsetown runs $110, so why pay more than half price for a used one even if it's in good shape.

I don't see why not. It would depend on the wear.

Beautiful Milan, moon. Why wait? Wear it whenever there's no snow falling or gale force winds.
