Old Mink fur hat n stuff what to do?

[J.O. Henson]

Need a hand here.
I'm by no means a proponent of fur coats and such so let's get that straight right off.

However going thru some of my moms old boxes I came across a Mink tail hat and two shoulder/neck wraps that seem to be of the same material.

Does anyone know what I could do with these things? I have zero use for them.
The hat is from the 60's at least and still has the box. But it's not a garbage item.
Is there a market need for any of this stuff?

Any help would be appreciated.

There are quite a few retro clothing shops in town that might buy them. I did that with some of my mother's cooler things.

You can also try craigslist.

You could also donate them to amateur theatre groups who always need props.

You ladies make me laugh. Slaves to fashion!!!

If that does not work out try the consignment store on 16th at Main, Henson.

P.S. what condition are the items in?

I love vintage fur. I won't buy new fur because I don't like to support the continuation of the industry but I'm all for upcycling the old pelts! I just recently made a couple stoles from an old coat, and would absolutely love to add to my collection

Thanks ladies and CT but I think I've found a home for them. If not I'll let you know.

in Kits it might not go over well , but in Montreal , fur is fashion still.....
