Absolutely one of the coolest threads/posts on the FL!

Thanks rlk. I think I only spotted one person in the first one (1903) without a hat---and that most likely due to the rather gusty wind knocking it off. I love watching extremely early films such as these. Everyone in the second clip wore a hat.
