Thank you so much for your comments and likes. I reciprocate with all my heart for what you show every day
Here we are on a fairly serene afternoon in the valleys, but foggy south of Verona.

Fourth hat in black. This one also comes from France and brings with it very little information.

No trace of the lining, if it ever existed, there remains a tiny remnant of something that was attached to the inside. The sweatband has only one indication embossed with now faded gold trim "The Perfection" and nothing else.

The felt is a wool-fur mix and the shape is well-shaped like the hats in vogue between the first and second world wars. light and very malleable it is a pleasure to wear it

Fantastic, Daniele. Nice organic crease and that brim curl is superb.

Yesterday I was driving through two inches of snow, today it's over 50 degrees. Crazy weather! I have a day of clean work, just some bidding and calls so I get to wear a nice hat. Today I'm wearing my John Batterson felted edge, it isn't marked as a twenty but has an original $20 price tag.

My fourth contribution to Stingymas is the Knox Flying Cloud in a light grey with a slight green tinge to it. Probably from the ‘60s. 4.5cm brim with a custom edge.

Thanks! This one really is practically perfect. I strongly suspect this hat was probably rarely, if ever, worn.
