Hat
maker's
Electric Iron
This is a very nice example of a hard to find
electric hatters iron. It is marked Grand MFG Co. a small maker that
was located in Chicago and serviced this small niche market. Like many
aspects of life business etc, hatters had specially designed and shaped irons
for their profession even though in the end the desired result was the same.
In general the main difference is they are round front, and very heavy.

3 Hatter's
Finishing Irons
From the bottom left. First we have a
McDonalds Rotary Iron. They were a aftermarket gentleman's iron for touching up
the evening wear. The next one is the same iron in the original box.
On the top is an electric iron for touching up in those hard to reach places.
This style iron could have been used in other applications than hat making, but
it came right out of a hat makers shop we helped close up and sell off.

Brass Electric Handled Hatters Finishing Iron
This iron is for finishing the hat and for small hard to
reach areas. It is electric with an unusual looking plug on it.
The lid swings open to allow access to what I assume is the heating element.
I do not know if it is operational. It is the same iron pictured
just above. Very nice, and unusual.
Very Good ........ $75.00
