Great lookin' Borso, Terry!

OK, here are a couple of pictures of my new Borsalino Alessandria. It's a beautiful hat and the quality is unbelievable.

Terry; Wow - nice looking hat. You have been very patiently looking for your recent hats - congrats on the successes of late.

Best, Eric -

Thanks Eric. I got hit pretty hard over a short period of time. I'd love to score a Playboy next.

Borsalino, size 6, probably early 50s made older. Really nice felt color.

Nice find, thats a very sharp color. Looks clean too.

Steve, perfect looking Borsalino in shape and color. I really like it.

Any one with a Borso straw in size 7 3/8 to trade or sell.
I am wanting a brim of at least 2 1/4
Pm me if you have anything

Very nice Daedalus! Nice looking hat in one of my favorite colors.
Here is my "Lino" Alessandria after rebashing the crown into an elongated diamond shape and giving the brim a slight upturn .

I apologize if this question has been answered previously but what is the difference between "BORSALINO G.B. FU LAZZARO" and "Borsalino Alessandria"?

Sibling rivalry. Google history of Borsalino to get history is easiest answer

Scott the brim looks great.

Thanks bond. Tried your suggestion but got the same sanitized brief history with no mention of the Lazzaro faction. After many google search variations I finally got a hit that led me back here though, should have known it would:

Wouldn't be surprised if I read this entire thread I find something too.

Thanks for comments guys.
I have a sweet Borso coming back from rehab that I am looking forward to seeing again. It's a lighter color that I have not seen before with brim binding , putting a narrow crown ribbon on to match and new sweat.
