    List of Vintage Hat Companies, and Their Opening and Closing Dates?

    I have been wondering, is there a list of vintage hat companies (1900s-1970s), and with their opening and closing dates? I can't seem to find such a list. If it doesn't exist, I think it would be quite useful. :) Thanks! :)

    Bob Lehmann Organist?

    I enjoy buying old records from the thrift store (they are all 50 cents each!), and it is easy to find old records. :D While browsing the records section the other day, I picked up several records, (one of them was from the 20s!), however, the most mysterious record I found was a record by Bob...

    What Kind of Shirt is This?

    I found this very unusual collarless plaid shirt made by Peter Barton's Closet at the thrift store today. It was made in Italy. It is constructed similar to a normal button down shirt, but the buttons don't go down all the way, and are off center. There is no collar, and the cuffs have only one...

    Today, I picked up some records, a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and a very unusual collarless plaid shirt. The unusual collarless plaid shirt made by Peter Barton's Closet. I have no idea when it's from. There are no care instructions, and it is made in Italy. I'm guessing it's 70s, but...

    How many years have you been lurking around the lounge??

    Last Saturday, I exchanged the Cingolani accordion as there was a crack in it. The exchange was easy, and the fellows at the accordion store were friendly. The new used accordion I got is from the 1960s, and is made by Arpeggio. It works fine, and is in fine condition.

    What is this hat?

    Interesting. I've never seen a hat like this before. Are there tweed versions (similar to trilbies?)

    Do you know where you might find them new, or vintage? What would you search for?

    What is this hat?

    I found this hat on Etsy. It was made by Sears, and appears to be a sun hat, mixed with a pork pie, and a trilby. :confused: What kind of hat is this exactly? https://www.etsy.com/listing/252810263/vintage-sears-blueturquoise-sporty-pork?ref=shop_home_active_8

    Polo Shirt Over Shirt?

    I found this picture of Lawrence Welk wearing what appears to be a polo shirt, over a shirt and tie. Is this a polo shirt, or is it a sweater? Did other people in the Golden Era do this as well?
