Hatting artefacts, memorabilia items etc.

Denton 1830's price list for part made hat products.
Possibly aquired by Charles Luke Bastow who at the time of publication (1839), was living in the Littlmoss
area of Droyslden. Presumably this is a price list of unfinsihed hats (pieces?) sold to the larger manufacturers
to be finished and trimmed. Looks like a reproduction due to the typeface and paper quality (no yellowing).

Hat box (cardboard).
Dated circa late1960's, this is an oval or round fancy cardboard hat box probably manufactured
by Peter Blyth, Pitt St, Hooley Hill.
Aquired by Alice Barstow (nee Cheetham).

Thanks to Jen for the source material.
