The first is an unusual tin miniature hat gift box that dates from the 1920s or 1930s and comes with a miniature ceramic top hat inscribed on the inside, “Dobbs Fifth Avenue New York,” on a lion coat of arms. The tin is decorated with a lithograph of a busy nineteenth-century urban street scene, and the hat is in near-mint condition. The second is an elegant miniature octagonal hat box made of shiny black plastic, which looks like lacquer, and inscribed “Cavanagh Hats Park Avenue New York” on the ends. It contains a man’s stoneware hat, painted gray and inscribed with a lion, shield emblem, and “Cavanagh” inside. These miniatures were given as gifts to be redeemed for a fitted hat at the clothing store. The hat has some areas of wear and paint loss. 9462-5175
