    Thanks. I was not even going to post this, figured something else would come along that did not need cleaning and had a ribbon. I may give cleaning a try if I have time to swing by and grab this one. Couple more poor pics from my phone... Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Thanks for taking a look. I spent some more time looking at all the hats offered and what has sold. My target is hat from the 50s (match form I am looking for). I contacted the owner but it looks like they offer hats from the 60s to 80s mostly. I never did understand why these small hat shops...

    I have modified my search to look for vintage fur hats that use quality felt in the dimensions and color of interest that do not have any physical damage i.e. moth damage. After much reading on TFL replacing sweatbands, hat liners and vintage ribbon (found Sources and instructions on replacing)...
