40s/50s ladies hats

[sixsexsix]

OK here we go. Hats are first come first serve and are $15 USD plus shipping. They are all fairly light and even international shipping should not be much.

I apologize for the photos...I have never tried to photograph hats before! If you have any questions or want additional pictures of anything please let me know.

1. Black plate half hat...I call this a plate because it reminds me of wearing a plate on my head. Very dramatic, very 1950s. Has sequined pattern the whole way around.
Issues: velvet is a bit bumpy on the top, but its hardly noticeable and could probably be steamed out

2.SOLD!

3. Blue fuzzy hat, with broach detail. This might be mohair, I'm not sure. It's pretty fuzzy. Size 23.
Issues: The fuzziness just needs to be cleaned out for things stuck in it. I did it for awhile, then got lazy.

4. sold

5. Bow hat - I think this is 50s or early 60s. Union made of Merrimac felt, this navy blue hat features a burgundy trim and bow in the front. I don't know what's up with the lace....I don't think it is supposed to come down. You could cut if off if you want I guess! Size 22
Issues: Has some browning on inside, but outside looks fine.

6. Gray fuzzy hat, has 2 little flower broaches on either side of front. When I saw this I didn't think it was all that great, but once I put it on my mind was changed - it's really cute. I'm not sure what the material is, I can't make out the stamp. Size 22
Issues: 1 broach is missing a petal off a flower, one of the strings is loose (easy fix)

7. SOLD!

8. Ms Marple hat. I have no what's up with this hat, I don't know if I am wearing it right at all. It is cute - it reminds me of something Ms Marple would wear! Made by Cavendish, size 22.
Issues: none!

9. White spring half hat with lots of flowers and netting! This would be great for a fancy do. Comes with hat pin. I have not let the netting down as it seems pretty settled in top, so I am not sure of the condition.
Issues: Some of the flowers have yellow staining,but I think it's hardly noticeable as the flowers are all off white anyway. You could steam the flowers to make them more fluffy, and maybe some of the staining would come out, I'm not sure.

10. Another plate hat. This one is made of an off-white straw and has flowers around the brim. Also has small broaches on either side of the face. Comes with hat pin. Perfect for a picnic in the park.
Issues: netting has holes, some staining right along the brim of the back of the hat (see photo), the straw is a bit bumpy, could probably be steamed out
