Historical information

In the early twentieth century bonnet-style hats, fastened under the chin by ribbon or elastic, began to fall from fashion, and ladies instead started securing their headwear with several long hatpins – sometimes up to 14 inches – pierced through one side of a hat and often protruding several inches out the other.
