       2 . The headgear of  claim 1 , further comprising additional coupling means on said internal surface for removable attachment of said visor to said internal surface. 
   
   
       3 . The headgear of  claim 1 , further comprising a flange fast with and transverse to said visor, said flange having opposed major surfaces, and said second coupling means being provided on one of said major surfaces, the other of said major surfaces being provided with additional coupling means for removable attachment of said visor to said crown. 
   
   
       4 . The headgear of  claim 1 , further comprising an additional visor for attachment to said crown, and additional coupling means fast with said additional visor for removable attachment of said additional visor to said crown, said visors having different colors. 
   
   
       5 . A headgear kit comprising:
 a crown that covers the top of a head of a wearer and having an internal surface arranged to face the head said wearer of said crown and an external surface arranged to face away from the head of the wearer, said external surface being substantially coextensive with said crown;   a plurality of visors for attachment to said crown;   first coupling means on said external surface of said crown;   second coupling means fast with each of said visors, said first coupling means and said second coupling means being designed for removable attachment of each of said visors to said external surface of said crown at substantially all locations of said external surface; and   means holding said crown and said visors together as a package.   
   
   
       6 . The kit of  claim 5 , further comprising additional coupling means on said internal surface for removable attachment of said visors to said internal surface. 
   
   
       7 . The kit of  claim 5 , further comprising a flange fast with and transverse to at least one of said visors, said flange having opposed major surfaces, and said second coupling means of said at least one visor being provided on one of said major surfaces, the other of said major surfaces being provided with additional coupling means for removable attachment of said at least one visor to said crown. 
   
   
       8 . The kit of  claim 5 , wherein said visors have different colors. 
   
   
       9 . A method of manipulating headgear which includes a visor and a crown that covers the top of a head of a wearer and having an external surface substantially coextensive with said crown and arranged to face away from the head said wearer of said crown, said method comprising the steps of:
 attaching said visor to a first location of said external surface of said crown;   removing said visor from said first location; and   repeating the attaching and removing steps at a plurality of additional locations of said external surface of said crown, each of said additional locations being different from the other of said additional locations and from said first location, wherein said visor is attachable to said external surface of said crown at substantially all locations of said external surface.   
   
   
       10 . The method of  claim 9  for use where said crown has an internal surface arranged to face the head of the wearer of said crown, further comprising the step of attaching said visor to said internal surface. 
   
   
       11 . A method of manipulating headgear which includes at least two visors and a crown that covers the top of a head of a wearer and having an external surface substantially coextensive with said crown and arranged to face away from the head of said wearer of said crown, said method comprising the steps of:
 attaching one of said visors to a first location of said external surface of said crown; and   attaching the other of said visors to a second location of said external surface of said crown different from said first location, the step of attaching the other of said visors being performed while said one visor is attached to said first location, and wherein each of said visors is attachable to said external surface of said crown at substantially all locations of said external surface.   
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 11  for use where said crown has an internal surface arranged to face the head of the wearer of said crown, further comprising the steps of removing said one visor from said first location, and attaching said one visor to said internal surface.
