Thanks, Joe. Never get tired of seeing what seems a total loss come back to life with some steam.What a recovery!! Lovely homburg, Stefan.
Bello. It is possible to see the interior and the paper label if it is still in position? Thanks SteveCa. late 1940s/early 1950s Borsalino, very soft weight, velvety feel felt.
11.5cm crown height to the front crease
Excellent hat and, even more, the work for the restorationA bit of a treat, especially considering in what condition it arrived (see the Other than Ebay etc thread). This brand doesn't show up often, so if it does I'll jump on it. It was a lottery hat, because I didin't know what size it was when I bought it.
Rehfus Olympia homburg in grey. Size 57 (huzzah!) with the bound brim at 6cm and the crown at 10,5cm at the center dent. High quality felt and finishing. Weighs 139 grams.
Thank you, Daniele.Bello. It is possible to see the interior and the paper label if it is still in position? Thanks Steve
Thanks Steve. I have the doubt about this Borsalino to be a "revival". Always a very nice hatThank you, Daniele.
You've already posted a comment on this Borsalino after Brent originally posted his find in the beginning of May.

I read Cerizza....I'm having trouble reading this one. Possibly "Cerviza"? Not one I've heard of before.

Established in 1902 according to the sweat label. A Monza company according to the liner logo. It's not easy to photo, but easier to decipher in hand.

I'll post more in the Italian Brands Hats thread. See #687.
For me, the best feature is the ribbon and bow treatment.

That is a lovely colour. I’m finding myself drawn to a hat of this colour these days, rather than blacks and greens.Mayser 175 Jahre, so this one is from 1975, i think Mayser started in 1800.
