A couple of fabulous new bowlers you got there, Steve. As with Stefan I do really like that tight brim curl on the Battersby

Thanks Joe! Two or three of them even fit -- including the Crofut & Knapp and the Borsalino MGL.

Wives shaking their heads is a good sign! Fabulous haul, Bob. Looking forward to seeing the hats after cleanup. That second picture with the Churchill box being taped causes heart palpatations!

Thanks Stefan! The Churchill box had the Borsalino MGL in it (wow -- what a hat!) so I'm OK with the loss of value of the box. It held up during shipping and it will still store a hat.
Still ... I don't know what they were thinking shipping it that way.

I think Bob got the better hats this week. Thought I’d show some new arrivals before brushing, steaming, etc.

It will be a fun weekend project. I think a couple will be going out for some work too.

Oops. Wrong Borso that fit me (there were four in the pile). It was this one:
It may be a Gorasgu, but the label is hard to read.

I don’t know about that Brent. You have nothing to sneeze at in that group!
What Bob said! Some serious hats coming in, Brent!

Here are the Borsalino brothers...
The color up above or on the second two photos is more accurate.
Your guess on the model has to be better than mine. The hat fits me so knowing is not critical.
This Marque Grand Luxe (six star) does not fit me so will eventually go to a new home (unless my wife or daughter steals it first). I'm tempted to keep it just to pet it.

The fraternal Torino twins.
Beautiful hats, Bob. The first one is a Gorasgu. I have four in my Borsalino list with the number 706 or 706P and all of them are Gorasgu models.
Those Torino models are very nice. Great soft felt and a felted edge as well.
Two very nice finds, Bob. Good to hear one of them fits you.
