I understand the government runs on taxes. When I was young and a responsible member of society I paid my share, now that I am retired and living on SS and pension shouldn't we be getting a break? Sorry my lapse just fell off the soapbox and hit my head,nevermind.

Ha! But was it really "fool," or was it actually fur felt being sold by a fool?

It was in fact 100% wool, and only a fool would pay that for wool.

We don’t often see the Grand Central around here amongst the more recent open crown Stetsons:

That’s quite the feather too!

A sho nuff victory.
Suede Marque Grand Luxe Salvatore Balbi Borsalino, 50s? The diagonal liner seam is sewn together not just folded. Idk a thing about these hats, but I know quality when I see it and wear it.
2 1/2 inch brim. 4 1/2 inch crown front as creased, so great proportions! The felt is super incredible!! So proud to own this one! And the California eBay seller is sweet, too.

This one is on a BIN I won’t go for now, but when I look at the hat I think: straight to Ignacio to clean up! He’d whip this beauty into shape.

eBay has indeed had some really nice vintage, not sure if anyone noticed a few nice ones being sold by a japanese source,..for over a grand price tag. Nice hats but insane prices.
