My new to me DARK green (a LOT lighter in the photo.....almost black in person....) Borsalino "Continental", mostly Homburg (mostly, because it has the uneven ribbon treatment, narrow under the brim, wide on top) or what ever you want to call it.....Has an awesome dark green liner too!!!!

They would have the same effect of the colored "finishing/filler" powders have that the hat companies use......somewhat to very temporary, depending on how they are worked into the felt. Stetson still uses a LOT of this powder to even out the color on their light grey hats......gets all over...
GOOD GET!!!!!!! I am thinking defiantly 50's on this one. Re-order tag will tell much when you get it!! GOOD GET!!!!!! GREAT PRICE!!!!!! Doc.....you are settling down and becoming one of us now!!!!! :eek:;) Keep looking for those bargains!!!!!;);) You have been getting some great westerns...

Premier is also shipped open crown (meaning you can shape it any way you like) the royal is pre-creased (machine pressed in).............AND the Premier is a taller crown. The Royal is about just under 5" open crown where the Premier is 5 1/2". You can do a LOT MORE with that extra crown...
HOLY HECK!!!!! That is AWESOME!!!!!!! WOW!!!! Now THAT is a HAT!!!!!
M;)
PS I would love to find one like it!!!!! I would turn it into a GREAT Plantation Hat with that brim and crown....Yep....telescope and pencil roll!!!
VERY GOOD advice.....THIS (THE Stetsonian) is NOT a hat that gets discounted!!!! Often not even when a USED one shows up!!:eek::eek::eek::eek:
People step up for this hat!!!! The BEST modern mass production fedora...PERIOD!!!
THIS may be the last opportunity to get one!!!

YES, Brent has great hats at great prices!!!! I vouch for all the smaller sizes (7 3/8 on down) The larger size hats are just garbage....:eek::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:;););) Therefore no one but me should buy them!!;);););););););););););););););););););););););););););););)...
