    G.B.Borsalino Fu Lazzaro & C. <1936

    I've owned several examples from this firm made in the 20's and 30's. As with most other hat companies brim widths, ribbon widths, sweatband style (width, embossing, text and stitch style) all aid considerably in dating these hats. There are stylistic elements more prevalent in one era than...

    G.B.Borsalino Fu Lazzaro & C. <1936

    Nice score but neither of these hats are from 1911-1915. Trimmings, proportions and stylings all point to 1930s manufacture.

    The 'Golden Years' of Hat Quality & Style

    Steve, your original vote of mid 19th century up to 1940 rings true in my book. Most members of this forum past & present, including respected hatters, have never handled an early 1900s Johann Hückel´s Söhne let alone one made in the latter half of the 19th century. Big name manufacturers...
