Help with vintage work boots/shoes
My wife and I like to explore abandoned mining camps around Silverton, Colorado. We found a few pair of old old boots/shoes near a mine that operated in the 1870s to 1890s.

SOLD-Knox Fifth Avenue 7 3/8
I am selling a tan Knox with a green ribbon purchased on Ebay for $130.00 about nine months ago.

Also, the hat had newspaper in the sweat dated 1987, so perhaps...- Jabos

SOLD-Johnnyphi 7 3/8 Adam
I purchased this hat from the original auction winner. It is a 7 3/8. I wear a long oval on the border between 7 3/8 and 7 1/4. This hat fits in length but is a bit wide. I put felt in the sides, the reason the leather sweat is a bit puckered on the side. The auction winner paid $200 and I...- Jabos

Help with a hat ID please
My new hobby makes me look at my family pics in a new light. This is my great-grandfather with my Mother in 1945.

Hitler's fedora
Being new to this, I now notice hats when I never had before. Watching Hitler's Bodyguard tonight I saw that often shown color film footage of him with Eva and the crew at the Eagles Nest. He was wearing a great looking thin ribbon brown fedora with the back turned up. I assume he would have the... -
