    Borsalino won! It has arived!!

    Ah, now we've reached beyond the realm of my knowledge. I'm not quite up on what 'reeding' is. Please enlighten. The sweat band is sewn directly to the felt and the sweat barrier is a single sayer as well, not rolled over. Of course it has sort of welded it self to the sweat band and felt over...

    Got it! Love this hat. It became my instant favorite next to my Adam Premier. It took it's shape rather quickly and with very little steaming. I think this will have to be the hat of choice for our Disneyland trip here soon.:) Cheers! Dan

    Borsalino... How Old?

    Great looking lid.:eusa_clap Check for the tag attached to the felt of the inside of the hat, there should be some ID numbers there. Visigoth may be able to help you with the age identification from there. Cheers! Dan

    Borsalino won! It has arived!!

    Haven't rolled it. The felt doesn't have the spongey feel to it. It is quite thin, soft and supple to the touch but it is very dense as well. Not a lot of snap, but if there were stiffener added to it, it would most likely have that snappy feel. I don't think this one is a roller, but I won't...

    Borsalino won! It has arived!!

    The only tag attached to the hat is the one under the sweatband with the serial numbers & the hat size. Other than that I hadn't found any other tags, cloth or paper. Well it looks like you have a good roll up for travel. I suppose you could purchase a little portable Stanly or Jiffy Steamer...

    Beater Brotherhood

    Most Open Roads I've seen on e-bay and in old photos have the cattlemans crease in it & the new ones definately have a cattlemans crease that are sold at a western store today. That's not to say that a bunch of them were shaped with a pinch front or a 'c' crown exclusively or with a cattlemans...

    Borsalino won! It has arived!!

    Yep, his name is in the sweat band as well. Could very well be a dealer, but it seems unusual to see the dealers name more prominant than the makers name in the liner. The liner is a very light cream color, and yes the protector is set into it. The spongyness is very interesting. Has be...

    Manhattan hat

    Pics... Could you show us some pictures so as to get an idea of the Manhattan logo? Are there any tags under the sweatband, like price tags or a serial number tag? Little clues like that are a great help to those of us who may not know but will do the research to find out.;) Sounds like a...

    Borsalino won! It has arived!!

    Great hat and great work on the hat Visigoth!:eusa_clap Have you tried to roll it up again and see if it bounces back into the shape you put into it? It looks like not so similar liners except for the yellowed protector on the top.:rolleyes: I would love to find out a bit more...
