Very cool, Daniele. Thank you for sharing so many beautiful and interesting hats!Today, beautiful spring day. I have a curiosity to show
They are two hats with stitching made up of two Italian manufacturers
The first is a gray Borsalino produced in the historical factory of Alessandria
Qualità Extra Superiore is a typical product of the 70s
Very soft and of great wearability has the proportions typical of that period.
The second is an absolute rarity for my collection
It is a Montevarchi - Tuscan manufacturer produced in "La Familiare" hats factory. Founded in 1905 and finally closed in
1976.
This cappelificio had its golden years in the postwar period until the early seventies when it closed after being semi destroyed by the 1966 flood
The hat is made of fine quality wool with this "modern" finish in those years.
It came again, along with Borsalino, at the end of last week, so I thought it would be nice to show these hats especially unfashionable so tied to the taste of the seventy.

Wow, Bob! You're really pulling out the big guns lately. Love that Mallory.Flying like an Eagle (Mallory). OK -- flying like a 250-pound eagle. Hence the face...
Gorgeous felt on that one, Red!

Dropping by to drop off. Today the temperature may hit the high 70s, or even 80 F, possibly breaking the 1950s record for this date. So to prepare I went back to the yet unopened straw boxes, and found my Cavanagh Milan. A Milan marvel!!

As I was listening to Miles Davis this morning
and feeling Jazzy, I reached for my Dobbs in chocolate brown that I creased myself.

Sweet pic, and nice hats too.I picked out the Disney dark navy hat this morning. We'll see a little sun to bounce off this pretty felt. Here's an archived pic from last summer.

A great Tuesday in Hatopia! So many lids I can't keep up and the day's only half over.
Great pair of stitched hats @Daniele Tanto. Those are real gems.
@hatsRme, Charlie breaking out an East Coast Milan in April. Love the smirk, as usual.
@moontheloon, Anthony, I want some meat pie! Lovin' the Borsa
@BobHufford, great Mallory Eagle.
@FedOregon, nice Disney, but let's see a new shot! Great archive pic, though.
@hatophile, more kudos on the OR swoop.
@Redfokker, super Hommie. Looking forward to Matt's return myself.
Rain moved through Funkytown this morning. It's cleared up now and I tackled walkabout in my BGGCD.
Sorry if I missed anybody. Great lids, all.

Thanks, Paul! This lid is either Sinatra-esque, or "Goodman-nish." (See the name inside the one in the ad...)
Either way, it's one of my favorites! Thanks again!!
