Fall is Here


Today marks the official start of my favourite season, fall. I shall have to get a new hat to celebrate; too bad I can't visit the Knox Hat Manufacturing Company to purchase one. I don't know what I like more about this ad from 1913—the outfit the woman is wearing (I'm going to assume/pretend it's fake fur) or the statement that the hats were sold in every important city in the world. And they were made in Brooklyn. Enjoy the weekend and the new season.
