[Chepstow]

Thanks Steve. That Borsalino is a really nice Exemplar. I look forward to your photos

I was the only bidder (9 seconds left) on this auction. So dicey when there's only one picture, but it gave off a good vibe, so I went for it.

That looks like a workin' hat Randall!

Thanks, Perry, hope springs eternal. Seller claimed it's in marvy shape, but we'll see. Looks a bit blotchy in the photo, I know. Maybe a good brushing will do the trick. It's a #1 Quality, like another one I own and like very much.

I like it Randall, especially the warm color (lets hope it's accurate!).

I like it too, especially that Dallas mule kick thingy in the front! Can't wait to see how the inside "turns out."

What in the world did I just do? I wonder if I've cut my hair short enough to avoid stretching this strange beast! The measurements are sketchy, or else the size is wrong. If it's actually a 20.5 inch circumference, you may see it pop up again, but I just had to take the risk for a closer look.

What the heck is Formosan straw, anyway?

Randall and Jeff, both Hats are great. My Congrats.

I am looking forward to more details.

The seller of the Borsalino I just posted also sold me this size 58cm Wegener. It had newspaper from 12/1950 behind the sweatband.
