habigman Posted June 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 Anton Peschel Neutitschein, 57 cm, 140 grams, possibly later 1920s. This is the only (and one other here) complete branded APN Stiff or Soft Felt Hat I have so a very rare find. The felt is very similar to JHS Stiff Felts but that makes sense because they were very close neighbors. I really like the dimensions + form and it actually fits so that is an added bonus.

habigman Posted November 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2020 A. Peschel Dinkelsbühl "K", 56 cm possibly mid 1950s. This hat belongs to Stefan on the FL. Here is his description. "Peschel in dark brown. Size 56 with the bound brim at 6,5cm and the crown at 10,5cm at the center dent. Label only says quality "K" and not much else. I love these Peschel hats, because they always have a great hand to the felt and this one is no exception." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habigman Posted February 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2021 Anton Peschel Neutitschein, Peschel "Kristall", 57 cm possibly late 1930s early 1940s. This is the 4th hat from a 9 hat find. I believe this is the only Smooth Finish APN Hat I have encountered. It fits more like a 58 cm so happy about that. The Medium Gray Felt is of a lighter weight and easy dry creases. The Form and Dimensions are similar to Echter Borsalinos. Mid Ribbon with an interesting Bow design.

There is a "P" on the paper label but it's very similar in construction to the Anton Peschel Neutitschein, Peschel "Kristall" from the same find. The darker Brown Close Cropped Velour is really fantastic easily dry creases and is in very good condition. Open Crown Natural Light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habigman Posted November 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2021 Bristol / Anton Peschel Dinkelsbühl "Excellent" "Bella", 58 cm later 1960s. This hat came Open Crown so unusual for a later German made hat. The Felt has a really fine color and finish and easily dry creases. The Curled Brim has a bit less Flange than a Homburg and the Brim Binding is thinner so maybe a less formal Homburg. I don't think it would be considered a Camber type but is somewhat similar. Whatever it is it looks great especially considering the time period. I also made an interesting discovery (see below). Open Crown Natural Light I am not sure why I missed this but the "Bella" mark was used by Anton Peschel Dinkelsbühl so the "Bristol" and "Diplomat" marks were made by Anton Peschel Dinkelsbühl. The paper label formats are similar and so are the components and construction. Also turns out the "Windsor" mark in Germany was made by Anton Peschel Dinkelsbühl.

habigman Posted January 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Dunn & Co. Ltd London Provinces, "Austrian Velour", "Romeo", English Size 7 1/8 possibly mid to later 1930s. Based on the paper label format I believe this hat was made by Anton Peschel Neutitschein (APN). I would like to thank Panos from the FL for making this fantastic Austrian Velour available to me. The Velour is all around (color, finish and hand) really fantastic. The Velour is more Close Cropped and has high gloss. The Velour is also very pliable but still holds it's shape. All the components are of high quality and the condition is excellent. APN Soft and Stiff Felt Hats are rare finds so major props to Panos.
