Very nice, Max. Another winner. I like it in grey and blue coloured hats are very rare. I think it says M. Grafite, so Misto Grafite (which is fitting for a grey hat). We haven't seen a hat with that colour before. Early sixties for that one too.Hahaha. Been there.
Longhair Borsalino Alessandria from Sweden. Got a craving for Ikea's Swedish Meatballs.
From the seller's pictures, I thought it was blue. I like it in gray, but would have preferred blue.
I wonder what the inscription in blue ink says. Is it Swedish, or Italian? Italian, I think, would be Graffito, wouldn't it? IDK

Nice one, Georg. Your daughter knows how to pose a hat (you never had a chance after that of course).
That's a sight to behold. I'm guessing you weren't the only one swearing, Max! Or is she really that understanding?This is my last big haul, I swear! I had to leave some behind.

She can have them altered, can't she? Just like your Knox!

My $15 Stetson 7XCB showed up. Turns out to be an Open Road. Needs a bath & block, but probably destined to be a beater.

That looks better than beater! It may clean up nice. Nice hat regardless!My $15 Stetson 7XCB showed up. Turns out to be an Open Road. Needs a bath & block, but probably destined to be a beater.

Thanks Bowen and Ed! I'm mostly concerned with that ring around the hat (from another being stacked on it for years?). I am happy that the 7-1/2" size quote was truly 7-1/2 (and a long oval to boot).

What do you think about the hat? How does it compare?

Yes, that was the idea. The Marathon is especially nice.

The Marathon is nicer than the Bailey. The Bailey's nice, but..

I think we all would have been surprised to hear you say the Bailey was the better of them. Still, I think Bailey made some decent hats back in the day.
