Pre 1940s dress hats

F. Witzleben Leipzig

I am not sure if it was made by F. Witzleben or contracted. The paper label doesn't have any company mark. My guess would be 1920s. Size 57cm and weighs 140 grams.

I don't even understand how any of this is possible

it's official ... none of Steve or Alan's hats are real until I'm standing in the room personally sniffing each one..... individually

seriously ... what the ever loving F#$@ ?!!

I may need to go back to New Era caps

George M. Wilson The Mens Store Inc. Homburg (size 7 3/8) up in Pittsburgh. Nothing on the paper label that points to the company that made it. The price was $6.00. Could be late 1920s early 1930s.

Elegant & Leger German or Austrian black (with some other colors mixed in) Back Bow Velour. I can't make out the coat of arms (help appreciated) but probably Prussian or Hapsburg. The Velour is thick & plush with a wide over welt. There is no paper label or company marks but possible this one is from around WWI.
