FS: Set of 5 Borsalino (4) Marque Grand Luxe (1) Colombo $100 B/O

[singlechange]

View attachment 77625 For sale from my own wardrobe is this offering of a set of five vintage Borsalino hats. All are in good condition. Some have signs of moth nibbles but not bad. All are small size too 4, 4 1/2, 5.

Perhaps someone would like them even if too small to just have chance to look at them in hand. Something like a travelling museum of sorts. There was something like this with a vintage fountain pen forum where for a small fee a famous Parker 51 made its round all over the country by mail just so people could write with one for a period of one week and then sent on to the next person.

For these Borsalinos, I am asking $100 or best offer for you to own and keep. Shipping is $20.00 within continental U.S.A. Feel free to ask for more pics.

Alan, Yes. $100.00 for all five. I know it's a steal.
Just today I met my master hatter Mr. Corvelli to show him my best hats (Cavanagh Forty, 1950's Stetson 7x Clear Beaver circa 1950, 1960's Stetson One Hundred with wide ribbon and short soft brim and the brown Borsalino (in the photograph) and the lighter of the two grey Borsalino (not the one with the black ribbon; also in the photograph). He and I discussed them. I told him my favorite is the Cavanagh Forty. Mr. Corvelli said the feel of the wonderful fur of the light grey Borsalino (in the photo) was extraordinary. In all his years (he is 80 plus years old and his father and grandfather worked in the Borsalino factory) he himself has handled such fur felt. Of course feel is very subjective.
