Thanks for posting these. What a great opportunity to see what the "hat life" was like back in the day. I'm fairly certain a few here think they may have been born at least one generation too late. That said, maybe we have a new opportunity to help bring it back a bit, right?!?

Thanks for posting all of these, Mark. Still amazes me that all of this material somehow survived.
