Hi everyone! ive been lurking the site like an internet nosforatu for ages and finally signed up, to ask some advice: ill be 40 this year and was gonna try and hit the Borsalino museum in Alessandria, but apparently my 40th has horrible timing as the museum is closed for renovations. wondering if anyone had any inside leads on whether or not it will be opening before october 11th (im taking a ship from Genoa to Dubai) and therefore will be in the area. saw a couple people went to the factory, but it looks like thats quite a special occasion and I would have to know someone. without checking the factory and museum off the bucklet list anyone have advice where i might find (in Italy) vintage advertisements, door knobs from the old factory or something odd, weird and fun to have as a little momento for the hats i still desire and have since i was just a lad>

your experience and advice would be greatly appreciated!
