C. G. Wilke "Flamand" probably late 1920s. Flamand is an unshorn Velour.

Probably not worn like this in the day but you can see the large amount of brim flange. Also the brim over-welt, crown form, and lively bow design.

Fantastic, Steve! That hat has everything going for it; great vintage, lovely colour in heather, nice shape. The whole package!

Two hat day! My other "work" hat will travel down to build some set pieces at the theater tonight. This hat is a perfect example of a low end, cheap hat for a few bucks in the 1950s. I have not found any references, yet, to this odd company, possibly a jobber. Hat City Hat Co. of Danbury Conn. Another one for the beater thread.
It won't bother this one to be covered in sawdust and theater dirt.

A good beater is hard to.. erm..beat!
