Wow..I love yours, that is really cool. I would definately call that a whipstitch. Here is a pic of mine, it is so fine and right on the edge of the brim
Thanks again for the great info. I think you are the guy to help me with a question..I have an older Borsalino and I cant seem to find the term for the brim edge. It is not shown above, but has a delicate sewn edge. VERY fine, just on the tip of the edge. Any clues?
Hi, so I have been trying to learn about grades, qualities and types of felt. I thought that I was doing OK, after some questions were answered for me regarding Beaver. So...I have a hat that has the store name, the Logo in the crown says Beaver Hats, but then there is a label that states...
Diner, I got the hat and tried to find a "since..." but Im afraid that the stamp in the middle of the crown is so faded, as to be unrecognizable. What I did find, were 2 labels on the inside (under the sweat band) of the hat, just next to the little bow and size tag. One is the same size as a...
Thanks Diner. The hats are at my shop, but Im going to pick them up after a walk and I will see if I can read it. The inside of the crown that is stamped is VERY faded. Yep, might have to get the "readers" out, the ol' eyes aint what they used to be! Bobbi

Hello Gentlemen, its been suggested that I might get a little dating help with 2 Borsalinos I have. I will post a picture of the hat, the inside and the serial number and hopefully you can help! I have very much enjoyed browsing the site...wow, there is a lot to learn about hats!
ALESSANDRIA...
So...now that we know it is an earlier label, can we get any closer to a date? And I did look at the liner link and saw some similar thru his photohosting, but I didnt see an associated date. Maybe I didnt look thru enough pages...back I go!
Hi Everybody! I have been doing some research for a couple Borsalinos that I have and so I decided to go thru my other mens hats and learn a bit about them too. I have to say that I am a bit confused with the whole "whippet" thang...I have looked on this site, ebay, etc and so many of them seem...
