Post New Hats Here!
In the batch of hats that arrived on Saturday there are gems, but also some hats that have had a troubled life. Here is the first example. A bowler hat that has lost the sweatband and a few pieces of ribbon on the brims, but has retained a mark, alas unreadable. I suspect it was made in...- Daniele Tanto

PANIZZA paparazzi
I finally found a hat of this shape that somewhere carried the name given by the Italian youths of the 1950s and early 1960s: Mambo! I'm dancing when I took the picture :) One of them, my gym buddy, brought me a photo of him a few years ago wearing a hat very similar to this one. Panizza...- Daniele Tanto

Cold day with pearl sky, magnificent light for photographing. For the Homburg & Festivity series, today is the turn of a "Diplomatique" hat from the 1930s. This is what the address of the "A. Meer" shop in Strasbourg indicates in its locations that determine the age of the hats...- Daniele Tanto

French Hats and makers.
Steur a very nice find. The Willoughby Prince IV has a great resemblance to some Tirard and Flechet that I have. Continuing the sun I will take a series of photos for you. The felt, the finish and the shape are those of two brothers born a few meters apart :)- Daniele Tanto

Thanks for the information about the Tirard definition of the felt quality. I thought some time ago of the assonance between the two words: rat Gondin and Ragondia, but I had not come to any conclusion. Well, old ads are good for something. I think I have others of the same type :) Molto bello...- Daniele Tanto

The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Steve, The "Peluche" Borsalino is pretty and I would place it in the early 80s. It is a hat born of the changes in taste between the Seventies and Eighties, however the finish of the felt is always a very powerful prerogative in Borsalino hats. Henry the Hatter did not design the seams, they...- Daniele Tanto
