3. Really excited about this piece... Athletics Straw Hat, circa 1911. The type Connie Mack would wear- super high quality, and not a "novelty" or "carnival" hat. The only other thing I've seen even close to this was a group of 3 Hat Bands in a 2004 Hunt Auction. They had the NY Giants, Red Sox, and an Athletics just like this one. No Hats were included (just the Bands) so I believe this to be super-rare....
