This Borsalino was sold at Harry Suffrin a well known mens store in Detroit that is no longer in business. Hat appears to date from the 50s. I removed the sweatband for obvious reasons as well as the liner which wasn't in that great of condition as well. The hat felt is in very good condition without and mothing, stains or odors. The hat features a 1 3/4" brim with an overwelt edge and a 5 1/2" crown as shown (6" open) which is wrapped in a 1 3/4" plus black grosgrain ribbon. I was going to have the hat refurbished with a new sweatband and liner but I decided that would be a good project for someone else. I know there are some people of FL which do that kind of thing. Wind trolley was torn when I purchased the hat. There was no button and half the cord was missing so I removed it. I use to have the old liner which wasn't in great shape but I can't seem to find it. If I do locate it I will ship it separately if the new owner wants it. $100.00 plus shipping
