Fantastici!

Going home from my office/studio. A grey day to be the first of springtime. French cap in blue velour

These are my favorites today. In order of appearance!

@rougeclimber I found a photo I took three weeks ago of the hat storage room. This is my room where I work for pleasure after retirement, surrounded by hats. 80% of the boxes you see on the left and right are full of hats to sell. The two closets are full of my collection as are the boxes above...

Beautiful and cold day. A few days ago the snow fell low on the hills and the air is crisp. The trees have the first buds and the almond trees are in bloom. Walk to go and see the renovation work of the studio, the hats depository. The cap is a "Harris Tweed" and the jacket is "Navigare"...

Yes it is possible. Some boxes are closed in the 2022. Reopen in the past months to make possible the census of the expendables=for sale :) Believe me, I'm not bragging. It's the hats situation that got out of hand with my annoyance

Thanks Stefan. For a few months now, due to renovation work in the office, I have closed boxes and closets, so I don't have the entire collection at hand and in sight, but it's normal to forget things when you have too many hats :cool: Thanks Joe! Keep you standard high as usual :) Thanks...

I don't have an absolute favorite, but the one that attracts me the most is this Barbisio in disguise

Beautiful sunny Sunday after a week of rain. Spring is here with its mood swings. Today a Mossant that I have had on my waiting list for a long time and closes these first two months of 2025 on the purchase side. I was attracted by the heather felt. The color is a mix of autumnal tones The...

Today is the second hat bought in the last few weeks. The hat is branded Cappellificio Cervo - Bantam. The felt has the Barbisio workmanship label, so we are looking at a product that was inherited from Cappellificio Cervo in the late 70's or early 80's when the neighboring hat makers closed...

Thanks Stefan. The Guerra 1855 was sold in France. I never see this type in Italy. The felt is soft and beautiful, I ask myself the origin. Thanks Joe. Merrimac is a very interesting hat, Famous Barr Surety Homburg a masterpiece. I like your choice in chosing hats not so common Reggie this is...

Thanks Joe. Your recent hats are really interesting. I will be back tomorrow with more comments

Domenica 9 Marzo 2025 this is the podium. All the hats on the same line I like particularly the Echter Mayser, maybe the sun improve my choice :)

Hello Bob, at home I can't find about Tullio Bertasio. In the next weeks I will search in my collection of old magazine and bulletin. As soon as I will find somenthing I will reply here.

I am slow in my search for interesting hats on the Italian and French market. I have collected something, in the last weeks, to show you soon. These are hats produced during the swan song of European hat making. Today I am wearing a Guerra 1855 hat, a recent find, that does not show any...
