German & Austrian Hutmachers
Thanks for looking! Who knows, some of the hatters in that time had their own printed sweatbands just as we have nowadays. I bought some 30s millinery tools a few years ago which included sweatbands with a "Luftikus" print on them, which clearly also wasn't a known name back then. Gesendet...- HerrSamstag

Yes, it's wool and I agree on the late 30s based on the style and the manufacturing details. Sadly there's absolutely nothing inside or behind the bands that could give a hint. It would be very nice if you could look for the name in your sources! I have to say that for a wool hat, it's really...- HerrSamstag

Hi Guys, I found this basic hat today on a market. I couldn't find anything about "Mentor" and haven't heard about it before. Does one of you recognize this one? Nothing hidden behind the sweatband that could give any more information. All the best, Dirk Gesendet von meinem ALE-L21 mit Tapatalk- HerrSamstag

Thanks! I found it near Cologne. The seller didn't know anything about the machine's past. I found some similar looking devices in old patents and since I got the correct needles today I am sure now that it is for hat linings. Who knows, maybe it was made to order. I can't even find information...- HerrSamstag

Hey guys, I just bought a machine on an antique market and have to figure out how to use it now. Has anybody seen a machine like this before? At this point I'm pretty sure it's a machine for sewing hat linings. Has anybody used one like these before? I'm not 100% sure what's the right way. If...- HerrSamstag

What kind of machine could this be?
Hey guys, I just bought a machine on an antique market and have to figure out how to use it now. Has anybody seen a machine like this before? I think it could probably be a hat lining machine? Any Ideas how to use it? The machine itself is a Singer 24-52 chainstitch machine. Thanks a lot Dirk- HerrSamstag
