1933 Dodge and a tilt slouch hat.

Everything about this photo is classic. The 1933 Dodge, the setting, the gal driving. But my favorite item is the tilt slouch hat worn but the woman in red on the far right. Her entire outfit is so stylish!

1940s tilt hat, Texaco, cleanliness

Now you wouldn't think all those words would fit together in a blog title, would you?
But this Texaco add is just perfect!  In the advertisement the Mother is explaining to Betty that the Texaco dealers have now promised to provide "clean fully-equipped rest rooms at our stations."

 

Those of you that follow The Vintage Hat Shop know that I love 1940s tilt hats.

My guy is a vintage car enthusiast and Texaco is one of his favorite collectables.

And when we travel I have this obsession with  finding clean restrooms.

So I think this 1939 Better Homes and Gardens advertisement  is a keeper!

Thank you, Amelia Earhart

On this date 75 years ago Amelia Earhart mysteriously  vanished over the Pacific Ocean while attempting to fly around the world. Neither Earhart nor her navigator Fred Nooan were ever found.

A few pictures provided by San Diego Air and Space Museum of Amelia Earhart--- wearing a hat, of  course!
