    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    A confluence of memories... In the summer of 1972 an eighteen year old me traveled to Europe with my high school girlfriend. We went many places but had a special visit in Como where we took the funiculare up the mountain to Brunate for dinner with family friends. We spent the next day...

    Thank you... and good luck in your quest. The Gorasgu is a big style - not one I pick up to wear often - but the construction and details are really special and hard to resist when an older specimen in good condition appears.

    Early long hair velour - finish is like mink fur. Ribbon and sweatband are replacements - original sweatband has been retained. Very little information, very high quality felt body.

    Turquoise/Native American jewelry

This U.S. Navajo 70 tufa cast bracelet is likely c.1940, its mark attributed to the recently formed Navajo Arts and Crafts Guild in Fort Wingate New Mexico. I have two other pieces that originated from this source during...

    Here a less commonly seen variation of the Vagabond school of lightweight travel friendly hats... the Gadabout has some of the nice fashion panache that Disney often brought to the table. I would guess WWII era for this one.
