Goldfield, Nevada. Photo by Julia Titsworth et al., 1905-1906

Whenever I see a photo taken inside a bar like this, I often wonder if the photographer got out of the place in one piece. I'll bet the place was dark and suddenly there was an explosion of light. I also can't imagine that those guys were too happy about some "artiste" capturing them while they were gambling.

That pedal car is a collector's item.

I wore two sets of wheels out. Wish I still had mine.

Who says there is no room for a hat or a happy smile when you drive the German Messerschmitt Kabinenroller?

Another happy owner!

Beautiful restoration!

that second pic was on my recent hard drive that just died in my library of thousands of hat pictures taken in NYC pre 1960

I had all the information on the year and where it was taken attached to the pic ... all gone into cyber heaven unfortunately along with about 3 years of "Hats in New York" research and interviews

boo hoo

SHIT.

I had a thread dedicated to some of my research pics and this was in there ... I think it was called "Hats of New York"
but it probably has been absorbed into another thread ... you know how the moderators love to do that

Laconia, NH 1954

Fritzie Baer is shown here in 1954 with Peter Karagianis on his left and John O'Shea, the owner of the O'Shea's Department Store in downtown Laconia. They are in the men's hat department getting the new red hats for the Red Hat Brigade. The Red Hat Brigade helped open many doors of support from people in the area for motorcycle week.
