Good score, Nathan. I was following that Barbisio for a bit. You won't be disappointed.
Great scores, Nathan! I've gotten a couple good ones from Etsy in the past. Looking forward to seeing what you do with them.

Thanks gentlemen! I am going to have a hard time containing my excitement waiting for these guys. This will be my first taste of vintage Italian since 2018!

Love this one! It went a digit shift to the right beyond what I could have paid.

So.....they were in fact preserving its "shape" as advertised.....My daughter sent me this photo of an auction hat I had shipped to her house (she wanted to repurpose the box for a Christmas gift).

At first I was thinking “WTF Auction-House-Shipper?” and then I remembered how the hat looked on the auction.

Also … the shipping was inexpensive, so “no harm, no foul”.

Who would have thought that a Beaver Brand hat would bring this kind of money? Condition, condition, condition ...
The store goes back to 1902, but most of the Beaver Brand hats that I've seen with the above sweatband marking have been from the 1960s (give or take). The store closed in 1976.

It's beyond the budget a bit, but it sure is a nice looking hat.
