Manfred - great hat, great buy!

Thank you very much for the kind words, Alan I look forward to this Hückel.

That's a really neat hat, Rudie. Sorry about the size issue. Is that removable sweatband buttoned in? My Stephen L. Stetson has the same logo, and is a fine hat. I never bother extensively with determining the specific age of a hat-- I just like what I like-- but I have to admit sometimes I'm curious.

Yes, the sweatband is buttoned in. Lots of buttons all around it.

A beauty indeed.

Rudie...Its a real beauty, a shame for you its to large.

Yep. Its a bit of a gamble on the size though. The seller's stated circumference of 21 inches made no sense at all so I asked for the length and width. The reported 7 3/4 in long and 6 1/2 in wide is identical to a 7X Clear Beaver in 7 1/8 that fits me perfectly. My guess is that this hat is an undersize 7 1/4 which may be why it never got worn much.

Thanks Randall for the nice comment.

I got this. In the middle of the Picture you see a very nice Panniza with wider brim, I hope he is a Panniza.
The other Hats, left a green Panniza, and in the right edge a Hückel. The other two Hats unknown.

I have sold occasionally but only after offering to Loungers directly or via Classifieds....
I sell regularly on ebay for clothing, motorcycle parts & jeep parts.
