7 1/4 Borsalino Nutria on EBAY Ends 6/14/2009

[XPLSV]

I've got a Borsalino Nutria ending today on EBAY!. Made for the European market, it is Punti sizing and possibly 1940's, I think. Punti size 5 1/2, which is equivalent to US size 7 1/4. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=230347849470
Nice hat, rather unique, too small for me and I don't want to try and stretch it.

Very sweet hat - this one almost got me to try a Homburg. I'll think you'll do well on this, Bernie.

I didn't have much Homburg interest at all and then I ran across a NOS Stetson Royal Deluxe St. Regis in gray--the original hatbox was with it...and it was in my size, 7 3/8 LO. I wear that occasionally now...and ran across a black Borsalino Homburg Qualitae Extra Extra Superiore that is going to head to Graham for reblocking at some point...

Is it loose, true, or tight 7 1/4?

Didn't see this until after the auction ended, but it felt like a true to size 7 1/4 to me (I wear a 7 3/8 LO).
