Bought this, was anightmare buyer didn't accept payapl so had to send cash (to Germany) was advertised as a 6 - 6 1/2 ... luck ran out it's a 5 then he charged me 30 euro postage which he didn't refund and put it in the smallest box imaginable!

Anyway date stamped 1957, Echter Borsalino with beautiful brim binding, more photos in the classifieds but a really lovely hat

Fantastic Echter Borsalino! By the way it was made in Italy for the German market. Borsalino used "Echter" for the their German market hats.

Richard, Thanks!

The only thing I've seen is a Poster for Lord which his rather pricey (but original) It's a glued liner so I'm guessing 60's? It feels a early 60's did they use glue in the late 50's?

This is the paper label

Manfred, Thanks for posting the Lord photos!

Paddy, Thank you for posting the paper label. I can't place it.

I have no idea who made these "Lord" trademark hats. I would guess the trademark traded hands over the years. I will have to see if I can find anything.
