This came as a nice little surprise: an unknown brand (to me at least) with a high quality hat.
Maviso "Superfine" homburg in blue. Size 57 (but fits like a perfect 56). Brim sits at 5,5cm and the crown 11cm at the center dent. When I'm shopping for hats in these vintage stores I have to wade through masses of black homburgs (the good, the bad and the ugly), which means they were either a very popular model and colour or they are just survivor hats. So hats in other colours jump out at once. This one did and it's the usual very dark blue. Very high quality felt with a superb hand to it and very good finishing. Brim binding still needs a bit of cleaning, but very happy with this one.
