I'm going to live in the states next year, and I have about 20 hats that needs to be stacked away somehow. I haven't got any hat boxes, and I need an advice on how to best store them for a year without use? Is there any sort of plastic or something that they should be wrapped in? :eusa_doh...
I found this Overcoat at a thrift shop today. I'm curious if any of you have a clue on the age? It doesn't have any labels in it at all [huh]
