The hat at the Conference did belong to Mr Rannie and it now resides with Clydebank Museum. However, I have it on very good authority that he had many such hats.

Sorry for the late reply,   seems like he was a man who knew his hats, would love to think 'the hat'  was somewhere  waiting to be found, like some lost totem, just waiting.....
