habigman Posted July 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 Breiter Munich Velour, back bow, brown, measures about 55cm. This is the sister hat to the Erko-Velour and based on the store locations on liner logo its' highly possible it's from the 1925 - 1930 time period. It's has heavy wear but the unique brown Velour is in good condition with no moth damage and the sweatband, ribbon/bow and liner are intact. Breiter still has their stores in Munich but now I believe only makes women's hats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"" Die gute Breitermütze " " The good Breiter Cap " is arrived yesterday. A Cap from Breiter, a hatmaker from Munich. Probably from the 30s or 40s. with the old German lettering Sütterlin. The condition inside is like new from the outside I could remove all stainings and soilings!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habigman Posted September 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2018 A. Breiter München Der Hutmacher Am Dom, 59 1/2 cm, possibly mid 1950s. Not sure if A. Breiter München made this one but it looks like they might have modified it based on the hand written tag. Very interesting bow design and brim treatment. I not sure I have seen either before. I really like this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
