I've been collecting them forever. Got hundreds of them. Some were gifts. Some bought for little or nothing. No particular plan involved with kind of hat I am likely to collect.
I've photographed a few different hats grouped by one connection or the other. The one that is probably the most interesting to someone coming to it for the first time are the Seminole indian design hats. They were made from patterns taken from the Florida indian tribe. Also, unlike most caps these days, they weren't made in China but in Atlanta Georgia. They make up my favorite fishing hat because of a guy that used to be on TV fishing down in Florida. Each one is different and only cost a dollar each when I bought them.
Anybody collect hats?
Caps?

I knew a guy in Maine who had a hat collection.
He was the owner of a village pub and prided himself on his ability to play cribbage. Each table had a cribbage board cut into it.
He would play the customers. If the customer won, free drinks. If he won, the customer had to give him his hat.
The hats were then nailed to the ceiling as a trophy.
The ceiling was covered with hundreds of hats.
