My flea market finds this weekend!

1965 Panfilo Homburger size 56, like new.

1964 Pork Pie Beaver felt size 57 especially made for Peek & Cloppenburg ( is a department store chain ). Very good condition. Stains at the liner!

Mayser Autentic Indiana Jones Repro, haha, but is rabbit felt! Size 58. Like new. What for Ebay!

Mayser young Indiana Jones repro size 59, I think it's a stiff wool felt! Also for Ebay!

Nice Patterson & co Trachten Alpine Hat size 57, my guess from the 70s, nice condition!

The last one, a Rockel wide brimmed Trachten Alpine Hat in Black, size 58. Ca. 1970. Goes to Ebay!

Manfred, Big haul this weekend! The Panfilo appears to be related to Panniza. That is a fine specimen! I really like the Peek & Cloppenburg too. I wonder who made it? Any paper label info?

 

[Chepstow]

Steve, thanks very much! Indeed a lot of Hats. Panfilo / Panizza could be right. It's a Homburger with a small edge binding and curling, very interesting!.
The Peek has a Label but it shows no Information who is the manufacturer.
Color is Verbano, remind me at Italia.

New Blacksheep Milan in the OR style

Hi Folks:

I wanted to post a few pics of my new Milan from Bob at Blacksheep Hatworks. It's a comfortable hat, and the details are what we have come to expect from Bob. The color is hand dyed, and I believe Bob calls it Chestnut (or maybe Walnut??); Although the light, earthy, brown tones remind me of a good cigar . The ribbon is a light brown.. almost a caramel color.

The brim is 2 1/2 inches, and the crown is a littlle over 4 1/2 as bashed. The ribbon is 1/4", and the edge binding is 1/16".

I hope you folkd enjoy the pics!

Best,
Tom

I purchase this Livorno as short while back...

It's a bit dirty, but wow this felt is very nice.

What the heck is a Livorno?

Love that second pic: "There ain't enough room in this here town for the two of us, so just go on an' GIT!"

Rodkins,

I've never heard of a Livorno either but that is a very nice looking hat!

 

[jbucklin]

+1. I too should have mentioned that it is a very nice looking hat. Still wanna know what's a Livorno though.

 

[randooch]

Nice one, Rodkins!

Livorno's a Borsalino, I think.

Borsalino from a yard sale

I bought this hat on Saturday morning from a yard sale for 25 cents. I think I did all right. Sized 7 ¼ - 6 – 59 no model name. No mothholes or nibbles nice and clean. I am very happy and my first Borsalino. It even has a wind cord! All for a quarter!

Josh sold one some time ago. It would appear to have been a Chicago based company:

The Livorno Hat Co was located at 3918 W. Roosevelt Rd in Chicago.

I'd say you did very well! Congratulations. Not a very common size either. That would be a 7 3/8 in USA sizes.

Nice one, Rodkins!

I thought it might be a Borsalino model name too. Apparently not after looking at Josh's hat that David posted. Very cool find.

 

[jbucklin]

I checked out Josh's hat too. I want one!
