You will probably be asked for proof of citizenship in Denmark, Steve.

Actually Max, I've still got British citizenship even though I've lived in Denmark for 27 years. I've been busy [emoji4]

Excellent low-price princess, Tim. Looking forward to more pictures!

Thanks to Randall @Randall Renshaw for the heads up on this one on ebay. Got it for $12 ! I don’t think it’s ever been worn. It’s a 6-3/4 but couldn’t pass it up. It’s on the stretcher now, so hopefully I’ll post it in WHAYWT in a few days...

Wonderfully soft felt and a pretty cool color combo with the dark gray and chocolate brown ribbon, instead of black. O.P.S. Price tag still attached on the outside of the sweat.

2-3/4” cavanagh edge brim
5-1/2” open crown

Yep, that is an interesting hat, Brent, definitely a conversation starter. It would be interesting to find out more about it or that style. I wonder if might be a ceremonial hat of some sort. With the model name, wide ribbon, and bow, it almost has to be a man's hat.

This could just as appropriately be placed in the WTF Hats thread. This is the Anchor Man that I posted photos of last week. I’ve never seen another hat like it. For $12.18 including shipping I had to have it.

It’s got some impressive measurements: 6 1/4” open crown and a 3 3/4” deeply flanged brim. It swallowed my straight sided block with almost no resistance; it was originally blocked with very little taper. I’m not sure if the sweatband is leather or an imitation, but from the feel I know it won’t let me peak under it. Size is a generous 7 5/8 and fits me perfectly.

The weave is very open...about SPF 2.
The weave gives it a delicate personality leaning towards feminine, but the dimensions, the 7 5/8 size, and the bow on the left makes me think it’s a man’s hat.

There is no doubt that this type of finish has a particular charm and it is increasingly rare to find specimens in good condition. Steve has the best collection seen so far.

Huckel "Prima" size 5 or 57 cm.

In excellent condition and ready to be worn by those who have a head of this size

The velour is magnificent, thick and very well preserved, and the hat has an unimaginable lightness.

Built in Czechoslovakia and imported into France in Poitiers exactly some time after the Second World War

For exact dating Steve will be kind enough to provide it

These are the measures: the brim are 6.5 cm, the crown 13 and the ribbon is 5 cm high.

I know I promised to let hats not of my size be avoided, but beautiful ones are hard to let go of

A sure sign of HAS, Daniele. I say that every day myself! Great looking Huckel.

That one does look to be on great condition, I don't blame you for not passing it up.

I let myself be seduced by a magnificent Borsalino owned by Bowen color M. Agata and when I found a similar one on the Italian market I bought it

Borsalino size 5 or 57 cm.

The Borsalino has lost its lining over the course of its life and needs to be remodeled mainly because it "keeps the imprint" of the previous shape. Some problems also in the sweatband

The color of the felt is "M. Agata" the color of the ribbon "Coffee" and the type "Ecosca"

These are the measures: the brim are at 6 cm, the crown at 12 and the ribbon is 3 cm high.

Made in Italy and sold in Sardinia, a magnificent island in the Mediterranean, in the 1950s

Also for this purchase the love for the hats that I like is worth, I hope it will make some loungers happy

Another great hat, Daniele. I like that coffee color very much.

Hey Doug, haven’t seen you around in a while. How are you doing ?

Better, thanks! Drs. finally released me to go back to work on Monday.

 

[David Hill]

I need to stop buying hats! These are the Fed IV heritage fawn, Stetson Temple Panama, Stetsonian and Banjo Paterson.

Very nice, how do you like the Banjo Paterson ? I’ve been thinking of one, but keep going back to vintage.

I love it. It is very well proportioned. I would love to get a vintage hat sometime, but I haven't found one yet.

Received this Ebay Royal Stetson. The hat is beautiful and in amazing shape. A quick reshaping and this is ready for the road. The dual ribbon is pretty neat and the triple spiral stitching on the bring just adds more cool factor to it.
