Thought I would go ahead and post this one too, for our friend Darran, because I remember him saying something about a hat like these in this photo, of a London Pub, in 1893. I think that's the hat style he had mentioned wanting to find, to purchase one. :-)

    Now there's a slice of the Vintage Life. No pun intended, but Oshi Shikigami does inspire me. 
    Honestly wonderful photo.

    Some people do not know that the term "pub" was originally just a shortening of the name "public house"

    In olden days hundreds of years ago, a small town might only have one place large enough for a 'public meeting'

    Seeing as it was only needed on occasion, they smartly decided to make it a place of food and libations as well, and the "pub" was born.  :-)
