Nice catches, Marcel. I'm a bit puzzled by the labels. They are of a type Borsalino used in the early seventies, but I wonder what the Ticino stands for. Should be the colour name first, but here it's obvious that those come second (nero and caffro).
Came home yesterday and found a package waiting for me with this wonderful and perfectly fitting bowler inside along with a personal letter. Christmas Came(y) early for ol' Hambone. I was totally caught by surprise and was overjoyed with the generosity of a fellow lounger!

Yes, Ticino is printed in both labels, so it can't be the colour indeed.Nice catches, Marcel. I'm a bit puzzled by the labels. They are of a type Borsalino used in the early seventies, but I wonder what the Ticino stands for. Should be the colour name first, but here it's obvious that those come second (nero and caffro).
Thank you! I'll be working on my confidence to wear it in public, as this is my first and only bowler. I like the look, too, but it will take some getting used to. It fits great and it's hard to take it off here in the house.This is a good look for you, as was that homburg you recently picked up as well.
I know what you mean, I have a bowler that I have worn around the house, to get the mail, and drop the kids off at school, but I haven't worn it to dinner or the pub yet. Someday I will though.Thank you! I'll be working on my confidence to wear it in public, as this is my first and only bowler. I like the look, too, but it will take some getting used to.

I'm sure it won't be your last Bowler. Believe me, I speak from experience as can many hereThank you! I'll be working on my confidence to wear it in public, as this is my first and only bowler.

Ticino is a region in Switzerland that borders Italy, Lake Como. Maybe that has something to do with it. Just a thought.Nice catches, Marcel. I'm a bit puzzled by the labels.
