Randy - Looks like you have a lifetime supply of lids - depending on your age. I was through Lawrence a couple of years ago. Had I known of your collection, I would have begged for a tour. Impressive !

I tip my hat to you Randy, just one missing from what i see. " Santa Cap." Or is that in storage for the winter?
One Santa cap in the first pic hanging on the door with a green bill; says “HoHoHo” on it. The “real” Santa hat is in the closet with the suit. Comes out in December. 🎅🏻

Next time thru, look me up!
I’m 66 and been collecting for about 40 years. I do have a few unique caps. One is a Detroit Pistons with a snakeskin brim; paid a quarter for it at a yard sale. Another is a Jayhawks cap that I got signed by Roy Williams before he went back to NC. Just happened to see him in the parking lot of the grocery store while waiting for wife. I yelled “hey coach”, and he walked over and talked basketball for about fifteen minutes. Then signed my cap. Pretty cool moment. I later did a small job for him and Wanda, his wife. Her’s a pic of that cap. You can barely read the signature now, as the ink has faded.

LOL. Most are from Avon. When I stopped collecting them, I had every one from the first made till present. They all commemorate something in American history or customs/life.

CORRECT on that! Had a few soggy hat tricks like that 😂😂
Just remember to turn them back around when you slow down. On the shakedown run on my buddies new bassboat,I forgot for a couple hours. The next day, had a big,oval shaped sunburn spot on my forehead. Looked like a logo, I should have written IDIOT in there backwards, so I would see it in the mirror. Dumbass!

Good idea wouldn't want any of the kiddies on here to know about your side job.

I’ve seen young people wearing baseball type caps with the bill on the side.
The only ones I can find all have the bill on the front.
Where can I find one of these? I have an irresistible urge to look like a douchebag
As Yall Have seen by my pictures I wear my hat right.
Well Randy you've got me beat by at least a mile. You're certainly more fanatical than I and at least 10 x as organized. I would have to round all mine up to take a picture. Currently sitting here wearing a dark grey Giants hat with the orange SF logo. One of my favorites right now.
I never was much interested in hats until I got a hole in my hairdo. Now I've dug out the company logo hats that were given to me when I was working and wear them quite a bit - With the bill in FRONT! The back side of my head doesn't need shade as much as the ugly side.

Only showed part of mine. Many are in boxes, closets, etc.
I mostly just wear the ones on the back of the door and a few in my closet.
I also wear straw, palm leaf, leather, and felt cowboy hats, but only have about ten of those.
I feel naked when I’m outside without a cap or hat.
