I was just luck enough to purchase a 50's era Strat. It was pretty beat up but I was able to re-shape it into a decent looking lid. What is missing is the Stratoliner hat pin. If anyone has one or knows where one may be found, please let me know. TIA

Apparently it's already been done. I just found it thanks to another poster..

I copied most of that info, I need something on Borsalinos that's similar...

There used to be a link on this forum to date vintage Stetsons. Is there something similar to date a Borsalino? I own several but do not know how to tell their vintage.

Thanks, I've been in touch with Scott!

Thanks. Isn't there someone on this forum that cleans and reconditions hats?

I just found a 70s era Borsalino at a flea market. The felt is in great condition but the sweat band has light mold. Whats the best way to clean this hat?

The hat looks practically unused. The price seems reasonable for a 40+ year old hat in this condition. I'm looking for an every day hat as I have too many "Keepers" that sit on a shelf for display and I don't wear often... Thanks for your assistance..

OK, how about Bourse-Cellini hats from Milan?

since 1860 Imported Coney Fur

" "since 1860 Imported Coney Fur" is stamped in this hat. Maybe they are the same company?

No, Google has been no help at all. It's a nice looking hat however...

Here are what I have on the hats

Not many clues. Just basic info and a few pics. Does not appear to be older than late 60s early 70s.
