Barbisio Hats -Studio Mingozzi/Bologna, Italy
circa 1925
The most famous name in hats in Italy has always been Borsalino. Its largest competitor was a company called Barbisio, located in near sagliano mica, a small village about 20 minutes north of Biella, where the finest woolen mills produce the most luxurious woven cloth in the world. isyllic . Barbisio fell on hard times during the 1980s, and by decade's end had to liquidate its equipment and close its factory.
Barbisio often used a dog as its millinery mascot, and this terrier seems to be taking great caution not to eat the wonderful alpine model in his mouth. The poster is charming, pristine, and linen backed.
