Hückel Weilheim "Special" possibly mid to later 1950s. I have worn this one a lot.
Found this Soft Felt back in 2012.

Hückel (Weilheim) Advertising Pocket Mirror Match Holder. Unfortunately the match heads had to be removed for shipping. Found this back in 2014.

Late to the game today. That is because I visited the annual Deventer bookmarket today and had to leave early. I believe it is the biggest one of its kind in Europe and I try to go each year. Here's an impression:

And a food pic of my own this time. I had lunch in Deventer. Slow roasted belly pork and roasted carrot, with a cream of sweet potato and a leek mayonnaise topped off with some crispy noodles.

The book market looks amazing, though I usually read on the Kindle these days. I love the real thing more, but the kindle is so light and convenient to throw in a bag.
With the 37 degree temperatures we’ve been getting every day lately, it’s the two straws that appeal to me the most from this week’s selection.
Looks like you’ve been eating pretty well, yourself!

Knox Twenty for my birthday lunch and a visit to an 80s style vintage arcade I’ve been wanting to check out. I may not be able to play Guitar Hero worth a damn or a real one for that matter but do I get points for expression? LOL

A belated happy birthday, Joe.

Bit of a Van Morrison look going on there :)

Not easy to find an oversized flat cap these days. Same goes for nice looking bride too. Looks like the cap is made from linen fabric.
Thank you... Keith Lo Bue is one of several craftsmen who make hats in 1920-1930 proportions. This one is cut from a wonderful piece of vintage 1950s linen silkscreened in a wild atomic design. You can see a nice presentation of his work at Etsy:
