    Thank you for the reply...sorry to read about the company going under. I guess, it's good to have one of their hats even if it is one of their later ones. I suspected it was a not very old because of the relatively good condition it was in, but I was hooked when I saw the little rabbit figure...

    Hello mayserwegener and friends The last time I posted (in the summer) a brown long hair rabbit felt hat which had no identifying marks-and it was tough to identify the maker and the exact period of manufacture...I just bought this new grey rabbit felt hat definitely from Wegener (complete with...

    Thanks for the additional information Mayserwegener. Again, I appreciate you looking into it. If you get any other information on it, please let let me know. In the the meantime, I am looking forward to the weather getting a bit cooler so I can start wearing my hat again :)

    Hello again...I appreciate you looking into it. I checked for glue residue inside the hat and under the sweatband and could see none...what is a "Flamand"? Do you mean Flemish/Belgian in origin?

    Thank you for the input. I was hoping that it was a bit older based on the mélange type long hair felt designated as being of "seal extra" finish and what seems to me to be a reeded sweatband-somethings that were a bit anachronistic and would make the hat more unique and place it earlier (in the...

    Thank you for your reply and suggestion-They bear out my hunch that this an older hat (but maybe not as old as I initially thought) and perhaps a bit of a unique one at that. I shall check out that thread and try to get a little more information. In the meanwhile, I look forward to any other...

    Thanks for the input...it is very difficult to judge quality based on a few pictures...but it really does feel like a nice vintage hat. The initials suggest it was well-loved...the use of a two color mélange felt and details such as the bound outer rim which is the same material as the...

    Hello...this is my first post and I was wondering if anyone could help me identify this hat (see pics). I think is a long haired felt fedora (maybe rabbit) and I am guessing maybe German...1930's or 40's..? The felt material looks fur on the outside-just plain black on the inside-no liner...
