Manfred, Thanks! Anton Pichler must have liked using vents.

J.Hückel´s Söhne / Jaques Mayer "Standard", size 58cm, Brim 3 1/2 inches, Crown 6 inches, excellent condition, probably 1930s. This is a collaboration with Jaques / Jacques Mayer Hutfabrik (Hat Factory) Bratislava. I couldn't find anything on Jaques / Jacques Mayer but I will keep looking. This hat is really fantastic and has a very unique look with a very wide curled brim with binding. The felt (not a Velour) is somewhat similar to my 1929 Max Eckard Berlin Echter Borsalinos.

Two beauties.

Manfred, Bob, Thanks!

These are more accurate color wise.

Steve, I don't mean to belittle the beauty of that hat (it is breathtaking), but when I see it, I get a "Sister Bertrille" vibe.

 

[mayserwegener]

Yes definitely not normal dimensions for such a hat!

Ústřední Sociální Pojišťovny (Central Social Insurance Company) Identity Card (1926 - 1930). This man (Franz Freissler) was employed by Brüder Böhm Hutfabriken (Hat Factories). Notice Brüder Böhm still uses Neu-Titschein (German) and not Nový Jičín (Czech) post WWI Slavication. Also the passbook documentation is in both Czech and German. I received this a short while ago.
