Each year in my house we had the ceremony of the HAT! My father would begin the process of buying a new hat and it took some weeks of trying on and deciding on what style and colour to wear. He would have had a field day in this shop.

Swordscookie Wonder if he ever purchased a Falcon Make or a Battersby?

National Library of Ireland on The Commons He might have before I was born but if there was an Irish hat manfacturers then he would have gone for that.

I think the ancient art of hat wearing should be brought back to the country. A good wide brimmed Fedora doubles as a personal umbrella on a wet day.

I must agree with Joefuz on that score. Hats are a much neglected accessory these days, except by the country music crowd.

The pretty one; Sidney Madge Gifford, the youngest of twelve children, was born to Frederick Gifford and Isabella Gifford (née Burton) in Rathmines, Dublin on August 3, 1889.

In 1921, Sidney set about returning to Ireland with her son, Finian, whom she had as a result of a short-lived marriage or liaison with Hungarian émigré Arpad Czira who by then returned to Hungary.

Can't you imagine the rush to get them all indoors at the first hint of rain! Love the two bits immediately above his head!

12/6 for a fedora. These days they're about EUR 180. How does that compare, taking inflation into account?

My favourite thing is the "pegs" to straighten the piles of hat boxes against the slope of Barronstrand Street!
