Those have really nice felt.

Stephan, when you get that Berteil we gotta commiserate. I’ve yet to see another. They have such history and so little historical info that i’ve found!! I’m excited for you on this one!!! After all Mr. Borsalino learned his trade there and took some vat felt when he left.

Thanks, Bowen. Yes, we do have to compare notes on this one. Can't wait really for it to arrive. There must be something of the ghost of Guiseppe that lingers there.

Shoulda held out for the BR "549"

Shoulda held out for the BR "549"

True story: When the city finally decided to spend the money on take home cars the new LTD's arrived and officers were allowed to select their unit number based on seniority. When my turn came 549 was available so I had to have it, especially since patrolmen had the call sign designation BRavo. Not everybody got the joke.

Love it.

Yes it does Joao. I haven't yet compared them side by side, but I would say the hand is comparable to my Churchill Dalworth "40" which is also in Palomino. I would like to compare the hand of these two with BB's "50".

That is interesting. I have a 5x and a double x Ft Worth. This is the first BR 30 Ft Worth I have seen. Very cool!

Anxious to see more of this. Never knew such an animal existed.

I'll post some pics in a couple of days when I get some time.

Waiting on four from Daniele.
First, Borsalino "Top" edizione especiale numerata". The felt looks magnificent. Can't wait.

Third from Daniele, a Hückel Foulard. I envy the Hückels Steven posts. Now I have one.

Fourth from Daniele, a Borsalino Mirtillo. I was disappointed when he posted it wasn't for sale, but fortunately for me, it didn't fit him...

Hufvud Ragnar fedora. This one is supposed to arrive directly to my home in Mexico from Sweden. I am sure Ragnar Lothbrok would approve the use of his name on such a beautiful hat.

Quite a haul from the Italian Connection! Love that long hair velour one, it should be a dream to handle. The Borsalino color Mirtillo is one of my favorites of theirs. Can't wait to see them on your head.

Also looking forward to a full review of this one. Lovely color.

And a second silver Marque Grand Luxe. I will now have two identical silver MGLs.
My intention was to buy it for Bowen, to replace the one he gave me, but then I saw that what he really wanted Justin's Turf Club, so I sent him that one instead.
I might give this MGL to my father or brother for Christmass, after I put an AbbaDatDeHat bash on it.
