Puerto Fino Tuscany. The brim is just over three inches and the crown has a moderate amount of taper. The felt is dense and firm with a decent hand. My only issue is with the bow/ribbon work which is a bit wonky in its attachment.

Cavanagh derby (bowler). I suspect early to mid 1960s, but that’s just a guess.

Burton Taylor brown homburg made by Mallory dated 1958.
Light mothing and missing a liner. The felt is thin and easily shaped. The best part was I bought this with no idea of the size and it turned out to be a 7 1/2. Too small for me, but I’m betting I can find it a home. [emoji4]

Some great new lids Brent. That Derby really stands out. Such a fine example of how Cavanagh was still making great hats even in the early 60s. I think you rock the style. That Brown homburg is a great find. Love having a date printed on the tag. Pity about the size, it would be a real show stopper on suit days. You also tend to amaze me...
