Show us their hats!

Football supporters, 1920 FA Cup Final

 

[The Lost kansan]

My grandfather in the 1940s, picture taken having arrived in the big city about to head to Greece to take part in a transatlantic cattle drive. Loaded up livestock ships with cattle to take to Europe to help the war effort.
Not sure what specific model hat he’s wearing here, but he was always a Stetson man through and through so I believe it is a Stetson of some kind. Would be an early to mid 40s style.

Charles Laughton (1899-1962) knew how to wear all styles.

Fedora

Bowler

Tricorn

Hairy top hat

Ben Maney Gault, Texas Ranger of Bonnie and Clyde posse fame.
Not sure the exact dates of the pictures but I’m pretty sure they’re from a few years after the B&C hunt.
Notice that fantastic curl on his brim!

Footage from the 1920's of funfairs in the Netherlands. Loads of great hats on display. For the women it seems the cloche was all the rage.

Keef looks like he's embalmed (pickled more like). And Mick must be getting some satisfaction, he had a kid with a woman 40 years his junior.

Mick's nemesis, John Lennon,

The press would have us believe that much rivalry existed between The Beatles & The Rolling Stones, when in fact Lennon and Jagger were very good friends.

Poor Emilio, he's not impressed.
Ginger, meanwhile, has his own

My great great grandfather Henry Wells Hoxsie in 1937 after the 30 acre farm his family had owned in Charlestown, Rhode Island since 1698 was taken by eminent domain by the State of Rhode Island to build Burlingame State Park. The State paid him $350. Initially used as the site of the CCC camp for the men who built the Park, it is now the location of the park playground and and arcade. Henry Wells Hoxsie died of heartbreak not long after the photo was taken
