Love the kid with the guitar, looks like he has one of his dad's old hats.

I got a kick out of the kid with the goggles. Steampunk before steampunk was cool.

I also highly recommend the article at the other end of the link. Interesting read.

Start them young

Looks late 20's early 30's(?) in Paris. Whole brim seems turned down. Was this common for fedoras in that time? Most modern hats seem to be flanged down which I thought was a recent thing.

WHat is this???

After looking at other photos taken in Paris in 1935, it doesn't appear to be common; possibly a personal choice? That's Walt Disney, by the way.

Aaah, I thought he looked vaguely familiar! I guess if you are Walt Disney, you can wear a hat however you want!

I wish this had been taken from a different point of view; I'd love to get a better look at those hats and cars.

I had the exact same thought!
I just love a photo that shows hats you would not expect....i.e. fedoras....pith helmet at a Texas horse sale!
