Thanks RJR, I enjoy posting pics of average working folks living their lives, wearing our kind of caps. A bygone era, for the most part.

Getting back to the blue collar working man pics, these guys were part of the crew who carved out Mt Rushmore in the 1930s:

That one is more about the member's collections, but it would complement this one nicely.

Those aren't vintage, though. Some may be, but the thrust of this one is different.

Why? If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

No one has posted in that thread since 2013.

The caps are vintage, the cameras that took the photos aren't . I thought the intent was the same, to have an archive for just vintage caps, no reproductions, or any modern ones.

Isn't that what THIS thread is?

Actually, I guess you are right, now that I look at it more closely.

 

[hatsRme]

Fine. I'll post my first vintage cap here, then.
From Johnnyj, an Adam Royal, in my 7-3/4 size!! Guessing the vintage to be circa 1935. This could be the start of a whole new affliction!

 

[RJR]

Nice cap,hatsRme,you can pretty well bet on the new affliction.

 

[Stuffsmith]

Nice one, HatsRme!

Thanks, Gents! I suppose they do require less space.
