Thanks Brent. Yes indeed the felt is very soft and what I really like is the texture of the felt underneath the hair. Melousine denotes both short and long velour in French, without much distinction, but is also used to denote the lustrous silk fabric that covers top hats. Let's say it must have...- Daniele Tanto

G.B.Borsalino Fu Lazzaro & C. <1936
A real gem. It has the same shape of some Italian illustration of the thirty and forty. It seems from the paper albel, one of the product during the transition from G.B. Borsalino fu Lazzaro to Borsalino- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
The lot was poorly described and the seller had very little desire to communicate: a gamble, but every now and then you have to try your luck. This was inside a black hat, probably German, invisible in the mess of photos. I wish I had better luck with the size, but I'm happy with it. :)...- Daniele Tanto
