I just won this on the Bay. Anyone know anything about it?

I know you got it for a bargain.

 

[Spellflower]

Yup

I was pretty pleased. I've never heard of the brand, but I figured how bad could a NOS 1930's Italian fedora be? I just hope I can stretch it out to a 59.

You done good . . .

Cervo is fine Italian hatter, and I believe that they are still around . . . Cervo was at one time contracted by Borsalino to make their felts and hats.

Trade?

Yup

Hi, would you like to trade? I have one in 59. It has the same color, perhaps somewhat darker. Unlike yours, mine has been worn. It has a crown liner in gold satin with the Cervo Bantam trademark printed in black.
(Sorry, but I think I cannot send private messages yet. I could mail you pictures. Perhaps you can pm me?)

Hi Bantam Man. I think you need to post a few more times before you can send or receive posts. I would certainly be interested in a trade. Could you post pics here? Or get busy posting replies so I can pm you my email address.

Thanks for the info!

Hey Spellflower, thanks for your interest!
Apparently, 15 messages is not enough to PM. And because I think I should spare anyone numerous posts from me, without any content, perhaps it is most easy that you e-mail me.

Indeed. With all these mint-condition vintage hats from Bulgaria, it must be good fishing grounds for these vintage items over there.
