30s Shanghai Fedoras

[gcollins]

Anyone have some photos of Shanghai fedoras from the 30s? the mandarins at the time, flanked by Western influences and the foreign concessions of France, US, Russia, wore fedoras to the jazz clubs and everyday wear.

I did a search but have not come up with some good examples. Anyone?

Geez, not even one reply. Surely someone here knows the hats of which I speak?

Here's NOT looking at you KID

MK...hey boss, what's up with the members hiding their identity? Did they go out and see Spiderman over the weekend, or are they on the lam?

 

[gcollins]

Defiinitely on the lam, at least in my case. After the Yanks went in to Afganistan, we taliban had to hit the pavement, shave our beards, and swap the turban for a different hat. That's how I found fedoras.

You need to eat something before you fade away Mr. Collins .

Bossman, MK, you're killing me! I may not have time to fade away. LOL
