I hope you checked there were no rabbits hidden away inside it before you started wearing it, Dan. You never know who it might have belonged to in the past! Do we get a piccie on the Photospage? CB >|< |

That's OK, then. Are you enjoying your hat? Do you know the age or any history on it ? |

Actually no. It hasn't got any makers mark, but there are signs of obvious wear and tear so it could be anything from about 1900-1930 ish. A very ordinary hat, but as I say, £14.00, bargain. |

If only that hat could talk. I wonder where it's been and what it has seen - I love history. Enjoy your topper. |

As Bendy says, if only the hat could talk! This hat has been on someone's head and been about town taking in the sights and sounds of a bygone era. I find it fascinating. My Mother says it's creepy :-) |

I know. She was jealous as I walked over her as she was scrubbing the doorstep with a scouring pad. |
