But check out that wonderful winged ribbon on the Brindisi! I seem to be putting winged ribbon all my hats now.

I'd take any of 'em!

+1... but look at that thin ribbon. The character of those side dents expresses so beautifully (even with the moire distraction to the images) why we love old felt so much.
thanks for posting all these great old scans today, Robert.
Wonderful ...

Long overdue, here it is the Borsalino Pocket Hat I bought from Tonyb (thanks again!)
Color Ontano (Alder) Very soft, almost creamy felt, softer than my featherweight Colombo but not as light. This one weighs 2.8 Oz. Vs. The Colombo at 2.6 Oz.
Corrugated, un-reeded sweatband and a super cool liner. Fits me like a glove. Score!

Looks very nice, Alejandro, and in lovely condition. I do like the Alder colour (same as that one you sold to me a while back) and the Ecosan is a nicely proportioned hat (I have one but in Olivo colour), with that thin back-bound brim binding that Rabbit was so taken with on the Bismuto Natalsca.....Borsalino Ontano
Anyway, great catch at a super price, so enjoy it!

Then let us think..... then let us smile..... then let us go.
Yeah, I remember the one I sold you and I'm so glad that I found this one in the same color. You're right, the Ecosan seem to be all nicely proportioned. Here's a shot of the thin, back-bound brim for you, Rabbit and Marc Chevalier (In case he's lurking around) who seemed to like it the most among all.
