Thanks very much Steve - and no, I meant the actual liner emblem under the liner crown protector which reads 'Borsalino Giuseppe & Fratello'. If you enlarge my pic no. 3 showing the liner, you will see more clearly what I mean. I remember seeing a pic somewhere of one of your Borsalinos with...- se couvrir

Thank you hatsRme and Alan and thank you Alan for your very helpful information regarding labels - it gives me a much better idea of the approximate decades of my others and any Borsalinos to come (if I can get away with it!) Chris- se couvrir

Echter Borsalino Homburg in black, dated 14 Nov 1957. Sweatband reads; Mertes, Schildergasse, Koln. I'm a little puzzled by the unusual (at least to me) 'Borsalino Giuseppe & Fratello' liner label. although I remember seeing one of Steve's Borsalinos with this label. There is minor rubbing to...- se couvrir

Thanks for your compliments hatsRme and Steve. Another of my Borsalinos. This one a Qualita Extra Superiore in mid-grey. A slightly taller and straighter crown perhaps than normal and a sewn-in liner. No real idea of date. Chris- se couvrir

Just noticed your last post Daniele: +1 (WOW-za!! Complimenti a Daniele, too. BOTH Spectacular!!) and I especially like that sharkgill bow! Prompted me to post my 2 modest offerings also posted recently in the "Stingy's" thread. Borsalino blue: Sewn-in liner. Borsalino Nutria...- se couvrir

Czech Republicans: Tonak, Huckel, no name
Thought I would bump this thread.... Huckel - bought in early 90's at Bates the Hatters, London, so I assume that the 92 on the label is the date of manufacture. Very nice felt, quite stiff after steaming and keeps its shape well, so I assume that there is a fair amount of shellac treatment...- se couvrir

German & Austrian Hutmachers
You could well be correct Steve. All I am going by is that when I bought it in Jan 2014 from Burnham Hats (in England), their website stated " Today the company is split into two Licences with FWS hats based in Cologne, manufacturing the whole range for Europe ......" Out of interest I looked...- se couvrir

I'm supposing that this is the correct thread - if not please feel free to move it. STETSON ROXBORO: Supposedly the last of the European 100% beaver Stetsons - European styling, very fine, soft and pliable felt. Made under licence by Friedrich W. Schneider in Hartha, Saxony, Germany who...- se couvrir

THE MALLORY MILE
Thought I'd bump this thread....Mallory 71/8 light brown. One of my favourite hats for style and fit and always attracts compliments. I thought I would also share with you the lightweight wooden box I found for it - (my favourite star and image contemporary with hat I think)...- se couvrir
