    Yes that sounds about right based on the fit. Or lack of.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Took a chance on this beauty without knowing the size and guess what.... too small. Stamped 4 1/2 inside the sweat and 4 on the paper label. Has anyone seen this liner? I haven't been able to find a comparison anywhere.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Been looking for a Borso that fits nicely. The search is off. Needs a little work but overall she’s in beautiful shape. Fits like a 7 3/8 which I needed. Palladio grey with thin ribbon, trolley, and Labrador pin. My new favorite.

    Pre 1940s Stetson Westerns

    Snagged my first pre 40's Stetson... No.1 Quality. Sold through Silverwoods Men's store in Los Angeles. I believe it to be 1930's based on the crest, stitched sweat, and tags. Price tag for Silverwoods is present and looks to read $10.00. Looks like Lot# 7618?

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Thanks guys, the image in the liner is of the Sailor's Monument in Brindisi, Italy. The address of Francesco Sion's mens shop was located at a major intersection in Brindisi. Although the store no longer exists the building still houses retailers. I love looking up the history as much as I can.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    I picked up this beautiful Borsalino in a batch of hats and its about a size too small :( New Old Stock. Euro size 6 and fits like a 7-7 1/8. I'm guessing 1950's? any contradiction to that assessment?

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks, I've been poke'n around for a bit and finally felt like sayin hello ;) Here are some interior pics. Condition is excellent but I have no idea of the exact age. Don't know much about Klee Bros besides what I could find out about the department store.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    I can't argue with you. I just picked up two Borsalino's and one liner looks similar to yours but I assume is from a later date as you stated. Again beautiful!

    I personally think you made a good choice ;)

    Beautiful hat. Is it the liner crest/logo that gives this one away as a prewar?
