Gray Mink Fur Pillbox Hat with 360 Birdcage Veil and Combs – O/S, 1950s
About the Item
When you wish to shut the world out politely and elegantly, consider a 360-degree birdcage veil: not only does it scream “hauteur,” it acts as a transparent fence around the entire head. Traditionally reserved for funerals, this unusual model in gray takes isolation to an entirely new level.
Petite pillbox hat of vertical-pelt gray mink fur with top center tuft; 360-degree gray birdcage veil falls to eyebrows. Lined in charcoal wool flannel with gray grosgrain sweatband; interior combs.

Men’s William Lyons Black Fine Felt Bowler Hat – size 7 1/8, 1920s
Located in Tucson, AZ
A mainstay for both noblemen and commoners, the bowler was the chosen headwear of outlaws, bankers, Prime Ministers and vaudevillians because its low crown kept it from being knocked off the head in high winds and its rigidity withstood being misshapen when stomped.
