    Hi, It is a typical Air Ministry hat stand.
    They were sold off by the Ministry for about £10-£20 each.

    Today they are sort after by barbers shops .
    In the condition your stand looks, I would think £50 would be a fair price.

    Now if you new which air base the stand came from. Say for instance the base that the Lancasters bombers of 617 Squadron ,Barnes Wallis's bouncing bombs. RAF Scampton ...... it could be worth thousands.

Have got some period brass hooks for it. Thank you for all your advice.
