"This season the opera opening was not all high hat; there was a showing of gold braid and a generous turnout of plain khaki. The fancy peaked cap above is a captain's, the other just a lieutenant's." PM Daily, November 25, 1941

"Intermission"
I made this at the opening of the Met Opera Season. . . I wanted to get something different than the usual Society celebrities. . . noting a lot of men in military uniforms mingling with the high hats. . . during intermission I saw this row of hats in one of the cloak rooms. . . So I photographed it. . .
