    Chepstow, thanks. I will start browsing German E-bay a little to see what's there. Good time to purchase from Europe, since the dollar is doing so well against the Euro. Maybe worth taking some risks.

    Very nice indeed! Especially the detailing. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks for the Eifler info: I've not heard of him before. From what I see on his web site, he is certainly someone to consider.

    German & Austrian Hutmachers

    Thanks for the links and the info: I always enjoy your postings on the FL. I am familiar with Zapf: In fact, I already own two of their current models (a Lamberg and an Axam), and they are fine hats. However, I'd like to explore some other makers. Moreover, if you go into Zapf's Habsburg...

    German & Austrian Hutmachers

    Question for those who either own or have had experience with the fur-felt hats made by Hutkonig out of Regensburg: How would you rat the quality of these hats relative to their price? I started by "hat obsession" after purchasing a few nice trachten-style hats; but I have recently also become...

    Outstanding! I love everything about this hat. How true are the felt/ribbon colors in the photos you've posted? And how different is this brown from the whiskey?

    Great color! You guys are killing me: Every time I see a new hat posted here, I tell myself "I've got to have one of those!"

    Movie hats

    I love this movie too. And, IMHO, the best lines are in the repartee between Belle Starr and Cole Younger.

    Movie hats

    Since there appears to be a lot of Duke fans, here: John Wayne receives a visit from his grandson on the set of El Dorado in 1965. Now that's a great hat!

    Thanks for the kind words. And, yeah, I wore this out on the town Friday night, and could see the envy in a few of my friends' faces.

    THE MALLORY MILE

    Bought this Mallory a couple weeks ago from Teethadore in the classified here. Nice guy, and the hat is exactly as advertised. It's my first vintage, and now I understand what all the fuss is about. The felt is very light and thin, and just melts in your hand like butter. This will be a...

    My Gannon arrived on Wednesday. I could not be more please. Michael followed my specs perfectly, from the 57.5 cm headband to the 5 3/4" open crown. And the whiskey color is probably my favorite of the any of the hats I own: very versatile and its changing hues look great in all kinds of...

    Movie hats

    Yeah, The Duke looks like he knows what he's doing with the bat. Strange, but I don't seem to recall any movies in which he was a sports figure, except, of course, for The Quiet Man, where he was a retired boxer. Maybe others here can enlighten me? And I live close enough to Cincy that I...

    Thought this might be appropriate for Opening Day.
