NOTES

Found this hat on eBay for $11. It’s easily one of the best purchases I’ve ever made. Originally made to promote my grandfather’s business, Winston Tires, this hat found its way back to me decades later. The business is no longer around, but the hat carries a small piece of its history. Between the checkered brim, embroidered graphics, and perfect fit, it’s everything I look for in vintage design. I wear it often, knowing I’ll probably never come across another one.
