Amazing find! and it looks like it was made for you!

Thank you RR

Very nice! Never heard of this brand before.

Thanks Marcel. I believe it is a store brand. Penn-Traffic Co was apparently a department store in Pennsylvania throughout a good part of the last century. I’m assuming one of the private label firms made it for them. My guess right now is Beaver/Langenberg… but it could be any one of the many usual suspects.

This rather large mystery care package arrived all the way from The Hatted Dutchman…. Aka the transcontinental enabler. He thought I could use a little cheer me up. This should do the trick…. Looks like Stingymas might be coming a bit early to Stingyville this year!!! I’ll roll them out as time permits… should be a bit of fun indeed. Thank you Stefan @steur !!!

Excellent! Looks like they held the postal gorilla in check this time. Still some steam will be needed I think. Enjoy, Joe.

Looking forward to seeing what our favourite Dutch enabler has sent you, Joe.

It can't be anything but good.

Borsalino Bismuto. I like the red lining
My guess: late '70's early '80's?

B Qualità Speciale (Barbisio)- Dresda
Dresda (Loden green/brown) medium to long nap felt
4 3/4 Crown as shaped
1 5/8 Patterned Ribbon
1 7/8 over welt brim

Stingymas has come early to Stingyville thanks to a mystery care package from everyone’s favorite transcontinental enabler, Stefan @steur . I think there’s enough stingies packed into the box we might be able to pull off not only a mini StingyMas in Spring and again in summer!

First up this a super soft almost velour like but longer haired felt with the only branding on the liner B Qualità Speciale. A quick search on the lounge I came across Stefan’s original post for this hat from just a couple months ago which indicates the hat was made by Barbisio.… making it officially my first hat from this maker. (Hint: it won’t be the last) The color “Dresda” is definitely a very Loden colored felt… one minute it’s brown the next it’s green depending on light. The finish is Talpa - longer haired and super soft to the touch. A stingy 1 7/8 overwelt brim… but a nice roomy crown reaching about 4 3/4 as shape. Finished off with the patterned ribbon that makes it all pop. This hat is in fantastic almost unworn condition and a fitting way to kick off this special magical mystery StingyMas in spring time edition.
