Among other things, these next 10 pages define and illustrate many different types of mens and womens hats. Special emphasis seems to have been placed on the types of hats that were fashionable for women in the late 1930s (including the halo, mushroom, skimmer, profile, sailor, Chou, cartwheel, and bumper brim hat styles). I hope that these pages help with your vintage hat identification efforts, whether for buying or selling!
