Does anyone have any information on this hatter D. Pinelli. I haven't been able to find a lot of information. I did come across a couple of articles in Archived newspapers, one dated 1948 and another 1957. I wasn't able to copy the articles or I would have posted them.

Thanks. That's one of the ads I found along with another 1957 ad from the same newspaper. Google maps shows Pinelli Hats on a map of the Perth Amboy NJ historical district. If you zoom in it looks like it's now a private residence in a quiet residential neighborhood. Don't know if a familiy member lives there or not but there are some Pinelli's still living in the town according to the map.
