I am seeking photographs of women wearing hats adorned with aigrettes (bird feather plumes) dating in the 1890s or thereabouts. The Massachusetts Audubon Society is preparing an exhibition for its Centennial celebration in 1995-6. The Society was founded by women who were alarmed by the huge numbers of birds that were being killed for the sake of fashion, and so we would like the exhibition to include photographs showing feather apparel. If there are actual hats, etc. in good condition, I would also be interested. Any leads at all would be appreciated. Are there other lists where you recommend I post this request? You can e-mail me directly, since this is not likely to be a topic of general interest! Amy Montague [log in to unmask] Art Collection Coordinator Massachusetts Audubon Society
