Tonak "Brillant" "бриллиант", made for the Russian / Soviet market possibly mid 1950s. This fantastic Velour was found by Brent and kindly offered to me a few months ago.

Looks great, Steve. I’m glad it made it to someone who can wear it and appreciate it.

Stefan, Great series of hats as usual but I especially like seeing the JHS "Platin". Definitely one the most special Velour finishes. Have no idea how they achieved that result.

I am so done with the cold hurting when I leave the house. Hope it’s a mild winter from here on out.

This is why my wife won’t consider anything north of the Mason-Dixon line. She’s Yankee stock, but her internal thermometer is all Dixie! :)

I always love the hats and buildings you post behind you, Jim. What's that one behind you two Playboys?

Normally, you see the back of my house, but I'm fortunate enough to live in a neighborhood with a few "institutions" that were built in the early part of the 20th century. What I'm standing in front of today is the Dayton Masonic Temple.

I'm standing in front of the three doors in the front. Also in the neighborhood is the Greek Orthodox Church and the Dayton Art Institute.
