Hello CW friends!!
Today, we have an early 1900's top hat case and top hat manufactured by Tress & Co. London.
This one was evidently well cared for by the owner and still retains its' original key. The leather on this one is still extremely supple and in premium condition.
The Tress & Co. hat firm was active in England for over one hundred years being established in 1846 and finally selling to Christy’s in 1953 in the neighboring suburb of Bermondsey. They closed the Stamford St., Southwark site where today the Mad Hatter Hotel is situated.
I'll post the hat and interior in my next post.
Thanks very much for stopping to have a look!!
