The label for the hat reads "MADE IN ENGLAND EXPRESSLY FOR TRADER VIC'S NASSAU, BAHAMAS" apparently he was given the hat by a house guest years ago who'd picked it up abroad and was bringing it to Scotland as a "coal-to-Newcastle" style joke. Anybody know when Trader Vic's sold knitwear? because I've seen other woolen items on eBay and most of them seem to have been made in Scotland.
