I could spend a LOT of time studying this one......LOTS of cool hats and creases along with a few "what the hell is that??". Truly has almost every kind of hat available at the time...........really, really, interesting!!! Thanks for sharing this!!!!
Thanks, I'm glad it is appreciated. I think it goes a long way to showing the vast differences in hat styling that have been around since the turn of the century. It also illustrates how hard it is to "date" a hat based on its dimensions/style.
Side note: I did find one female in the crowd. I didn't find any hatless people.

J.M Scwoob. 1929.
"Jacob M. Schwoob was born in Ontario in 1874. At the age of 18 he immigrated to the United States, arriving first in Buffalo, New York, then moving to Cody, Wyoming, in 1898. He was business manager of the Cody Trading Company until 1916, when he purchased the store and became its owner. He served in the Wyoming Senate from 1905-1913 and was the author of the state's motor vehicle license law which had a numeral representing each county. Schwoob was honored with license plate number 1 for the term of his life. In 1909 Schwoob married Louise Preas, with whom he had a son, Thornton. Thornton Schwoob married Margaret Files in 1926 but died in 1928. In 1926 Jacob Schwoob married Mabel Laird Bulger, who survived him. Jacob Schwoob died in 1932."

Amazing! The hat on the left, worn by the fellow in the dark suit, looks like something from Michael Gannon’s Instagram.

"These seats seemed closer when we started up the stairs. Why is the hot-dog vendor wearing an old football uniform?
No matter where you are sitting for the big game, I hope you are as well hatted.
