If only those Akubras could talk...

Each of these hats has been donated by a local character - but only after it was well and truly past its life expectancy! Each hat is labelled, and each could tell a thousand stories....

Great collection here. Each of their stories could make a great film, I guess. I like the man with the hat in front of the glass door.

[Babs]

I bet there are lots of stories here.

[Diana]

What a great find and shot, interesting stories for sure. I agree with Dione about the man in the door ;-)

[Margaret Brown]

Great fun, we have an old fashioned pub near us and it has flat caps hung from the beams!!, fav

[Carole Sandford]

What a great collection!

Hi Diana and Dione - Yep - he's wearing an Akubra - they are pretty much standard head gear out in the back parts of Australia. :)

@craftymeg Hi Margaret - Flat caps must be the UK equivalent of our Akubras. I know my Dad bought a couple when he was visiting - I now wear one of his quite often. It means a lot to me.. :)

[Susan Wakely]

It would be interesting the know the back story to each one.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

fascinating

[Islandgirl]

[Jane Pittenger]

How fun is that…sure wish we could hear their stories

[Delwyn Barnett]

Fabulous! I do like the man behind the door - seems to anchor it all together.

[Rick]

It's not clear to me if the Akubras or the local characters that were well and truly past their life expectancy 😉 Seriously now, well seen and executed

[FBailey]

Fascinating

@fotoblah LOL photoblah - with those old dudes it could be either or both!! Thanks for your interest. Cheers Rob
