Do a search on completed auctions using the "vintage ladies hats" and you'll see that in a group they sell pretty well. Of course I'm assuming you want to resell these unless you have lots of lady friends to give them too My wife would kill me if I brought all that stuff home.........as it is, I have a storage space for most of my collectibles etc. Doug (in reply to cyberdigger) Post #: 15

US Army Air Corp. 9th Air Force flew out of England in P51s and P47s to protect bomb groups. Very cool. Can't say much about the hats except that I didn't see one that goes with my completion. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ http://www.bornagainamerican.org (in reply to Dabeel) Post #: 16

As or the hats I did a quick research on the bay and really did pretty well. I'm going to buy myself a bottle. Now you all can ask your lady folk if they like em maybe we can do a trade for a cool bottle.  Always keep the lady folk happy _____________________________ thx privvydigger gtr'dug Collector of all Coaldale & Lansford, And love digging Summit Hill, Mauch Chunk & Tamaqua, Pa. sodas, beers, milks.....
