THE VINTAGE HAT HUNTER FORMULA WITH NUMBERS!
The Vintage Hat Hunter Formula What I am after is enough data to develop a formula to approximate the number of vintage hats that are still hiding in basements, closets, attics, storerooms etc. Start with the total number of hats made, divide by 2 to eliminate women's hats. Divide again by 2... -
