Sun and cold for a long walk

I chose one of the hats I am most fond of for its old age
MeerGrigio 3.jpg

It comes from a lucky purchase made five years ago at the "A. Meer" head shop in Strasbourg, when I bought a large number of splendid French-made hats
MeerGrigio 2.jpg

The hat was made before the Second World War entirely in wool.
It is marked "Super" with a patch, nothing else, no lining or other indication, if not the address of the headwear

I dare not manipulate the sweatband to look for other manufacturing data, leather too fragile

Size is 59 cm. or 7 3/8 US and it has still the basting points on the ribbon

Have a nice day Loungers!
Thanks for the appreciation on the Woodrow homburg.
Show your hats I will be pleased

Western Wednesday with my Adobe colored Beaver Brand Westerner OR clone (made with imported White Fur...whatever that is) and my trusty clan Stewart plaid flannel shirt from Lands End. Still cool in central Texas today. In fact, for us Texans, it's downright cold at 44F. Stay warm and dry everyone!
