New-to-me Resistol on a windy day. I sure miss letting Bob Roberts know the status of the local weather...

A quick-pic drop-off, and I'll be back to oogle the parade of perfection in a bit....

NOBODY can keep up with @drmaxtejeda these days, especially when bringing the top shelfers like that Borsa!!

For today, M&K Custom Hatters of Los Angeles, circa early 1940s is our best guess. Looks like I'm forcing the smirk. Sorry.

Great hat for a drop-off. And a forced smirk is better than no smirk at all.
This morning I returned to Italy in the choice of the hat

The hat seems to be a find encapsulated over time. It is new and never used and seems to arrive for the workmanship and the finishing touches from the 40s.

The felt (Feltro rasato) is very light and of a "light nut" color. There are no indications of the manufacturer about the color and type of hat. The size plate is in centimeters 59, French size 6 and UK size 7 1/4.

The Albertini hat factory, founded in 1817, was the first hat manufacturer to use the machinery of the then emerging modern industry. He has "exported" his activities to England by setting up a factory after WWII

That is a beautiful hat, Daniele. Fantastic proportions and sweet raw brim.

Rainy day so I'm wearing a vintage English fedora. Gledhill's from the 20/30s (I think). Very nice hat but I think I'm gonna have to sell or trade it. The brim is 2 3/8" and because of that I just hardly ever wear it.

The lines of this one just screams pre-WWII. Looks like it has held up quite well. Like I said on FB, the tall straight crown more than makes up for a "lesser" brim width. All around cool old hat Bill.

Excellent, Daniele. That one is a 10+.
