EOLIAN VENTILATOR HAT,
(6 AND 7 VIC., CAP. 65),
LONDON, 31sT OCTOBER, 1853.
The want of a properly Ventilated and Easy-fitting Hat, particularly since the introduction of the Silk Hats into general
use, has given rise to many seeming improvements. The Inventors and Patentees of the EOLIAN VENTILATOR HAT
have succeeded on the correct principle of Ventilation, by forming an Air Channel immediately around the head, permitting
a current of air to pass from thence through and out at the top of the Hat ; and the design may be applied to every variety
of shape worn, without infringing the light appearance so necessary to a becoming fiat.—See Practical Mechanics' Journal,
Ist August, 1853, (date of Provisional Protection).
In directing attention to this new and very desirable Spring and Summer Hat we respectfully invite an inspection, when
its utility will be most apparent, and its general style best understood.
