What do you think this hat might fetch on the Bay?The auction for these two Borsalinos didn't have great pics and I never heard back on my request to confirm sizes. The tags could have been for 7-1/2 and 7-5/8 and the price was worth the chance. No such luck -- these are 7-1/4 and 7-3/8 (with a loose Long Oval tag I'm pretty sure doesn't go with the hat). Off to the 'Bay I guess.
Pretty nice felt on both of these! I went from open crown to the creases seen with just two easy swipes of my had. Wish I could keep 'em. Can someone tell me the estimated dates? The "Fu Lazaro" is from the later run (way post 1936).

I didn't see anything obvious behind the sweat and was a little leery of checking more until I can condition the front (where "Allesandria" is imprinted) as it was a bit stiff from sweat.
