Manfred, Great find! It looks like it's in NOS condition.

Steve, thanks my friend, it's the third Colonel for me!

 

[ManofKent]

Looks in great condition - The Colonel is a nice looking Homburg.

Steve, thanks my friend, it's the third Colonel for me!

I have a couple too in varying styles. They were a popular Wegener hat back in the day!

 

[Chepstow]

Richard, thanks. I guess that Wegener is not often worn! He looks like new.

Steve, good for us!

Some German Advertising from 1959. Not for hats, for suits and coats.
All hats are from Hut Seidel Munich.
The gray Homburger is a Mayser, The Black one a Stetson and The flecky felt a Mayser " Maskotte Melange !

 

[mayserwegener]

Manfred, Fantastic! It appears the first one is a "Camber". This must be a style because I have P. & C. Habig with the same name. Are there listings for the other numbered hats?

 

[Chepstow]

Thanks Steve. Only for the first and the third pic! The left on the third pic is a Straw from Hut Breiter and the Homburg from Hut Seidel!
The photos are from a Fashion Journal. " What men love "

 

[ManofKent]

Great adverts - thanks for sharing.

Ausgezeichnet, Manfred. Few stingy brims here.

 

[Chepstow]

Richard and Geldoc, thanks a lot!!

J. Hückel´s Söhne Flexible, measures ~ 58cm, 155 grams, probably 1930s. This Melone is in excellent / seldom worn condition. Very unique liner color and sweatband.

 

[Chepstow]

Steve, fantastic, looks perfect. Nice sweatband detail too!

 

[mayserwegener]

Manfred, Thanks! Had to wait a long time for this one to arrive but it was well worth the wait. Wasn't sure about the size but it turned out to be a good fit.

 

[Chepstow]

That sounds great Steve. I hope we see a noggin shot of that beauty!

 

[mikespens]

Gorgeous Steve, you may want to wear that one inside out

 

[ManofKent]

A new arrival from the weekend. The seller had decided plastic bags were sufficient packaging, so it needed a bit of steaming and shaping...











Rehfus - no idea of age, and I know nothing about the maker. Any info appreciated!

My limited German copes with translating it as a 'Featherlight' and I'm guessing the model is 'Overlander'?

Very dense lightweight felt.

 

[mayserwegener]

Nice find! Rehfus & Cie made great hats. You can check this link for more information.
