And Now It’s Zippers on Hats (May, 1932)

And Now It’s Zippers on Hats
THE newest wrinkle in ladies’ headwear is a zipper attachment which is utilized for both ornamentation and head comfort. Patches of hair may now be seen through milady’s hat when the wearer zips it open for comfort during warmer weather. Its creator, A. Kaner, predicts wide use of the new mode.

    “Patches of hair may now be seen through milady’s hat ” especially as it is tossed in the trash can after its debut.
