I ordered a whole load of what I thought were felt hats spent over £100
What did I get well lots of military and fire service hats and these two East German creations
Not fedoras or trilbies or anything that great but nevertheless slightly historic.

This made by VEB-mutzenfabrikation

That sounds about right could be a bit older (late 50s). Some leather conditioner / cleaner should help with the sweatband. Also a good steam should bring the form back. Nice find!

Mayser Trademarks (1950s and later)

Mayser made hats under the Parker 713 Broadway New York brand name starting in 1960 (image from 1966). They also tradmarked the Hilton brand name in 1962 but no image is available.

Mayser registered a Ottmar Reich (went out of business in the 1990s) trademark in 1998 but it was withdrawn 2008.

Another great find, Steve. That Mayser produced Parker and Dreistern was new for me, but now It's clear that some big concerns as Mayser or Wegner produce the no name brands as Parker or Dreistern. I the past I saw some on the flea market ( Parker )!

I found that the Möckel trademark was registered by the retail men's store Ernst Köln in 1965 and canceled in 1998. Ernst Köln also had hats made under their own brand name as well as selling the major brands like Mayser.
