This vintage straw garden hat was owned by Jorma Kaukonen's mother. It is in decent enough condition considering its age but there are two areas where the straw is fatigued. It is rumored that the two punctures happened when Jorma's mother was facing off a bear at her house in Tahoe and the hat was caught by a low hanging tree limb. The bear ran...she adjusted her hat and kept walking. Beatrice loved a good hat (seen pictured below).
