That sounds cool, alanfgag. op2:
I think so... but for which hat? hmmmm.
Donna's grandfather worked in the fashion industry in NYC during the 1930s with Philip Mangone. She has a lovely black wool suit with leopard collar from Mangone, who was traveling in Europe with Donna's grandfather buying fabric when he made a quick decision to return home quickly via the Hindenburg in May 1937 instead of by boat as they had planned. He survived, but was badly burned. Donna's grandfather took the boat. Odd little twist of fate that I will be reminded of with this bit of fur... once I figure out which hat.
