Two generations ago, nobody would dream of going outside without a hat. My grandfather had a collection by the front door, and Grandma had a whole bunch of hat boxes in the attic. Big, round things, which often dwarfed the hats themselves. We have our own collection of hats and caps here at Awesome Avenue. We have a bunch of baseball caps featuring classic brands such as Orange Crush, (don't forget the matching lunchbox!!) Miller High Life Beer and Ford Mustang, as well as a line of Fedora style hats from Penguin. Fedoras have changed quite a bit over the past 100 years and started out as a women's fashion item. The broad-brimmed style of the 1920s and 30s gave way to the more compact style of the 1950s and 60s, as men's jacket lapels, matching the narrower men's jacket lapels which became more popular during those years. Our collection is a bit more Rat Pack than Capone. As ol' blue eyes might have said "grab your coat, don't forget your hat, leave your worries on the doorstep, life can be so sweet on the sunny side of the street". Stay cool, and enjoy the summer.
