Fedora, pre Indy.....

Post by Fedora »

I just found this pic of me prior to discovering the Indy fedora. As you can see, I have always worn hats, all of my life. What amazes me about this, is how Indy this hat looks, and I was not trying to do it. This is pre Indy for me. Now I know why I loved his hat the first time that I saw it. I was already copying him, but was unaware of it. Fedorahttp://public.fotki.com/Fedora/hats/before_fedoras.html

I wish I could find that picture of me at five years of age wearing one of my grandfather's old fedoras... I love it, Fedora! :wink:

This is a great pic Steve! :D Even the blocking is on.... 8) Very Nice.
It proves the fact that style is "A priori knowledge rather that learned behaviour eh!" :lol:
What kind of hat was this? It almost looks like a Monticristi woven lid.
The real question is, does it still reside in the Closet somewhere?

Warm Regards

I think I lost that hat that same year on a boat ride in the Gulf. Wish I still had that hat. I bought it in a mall, 32 bucks. It was a Stetson. Well worth the price. Fedora

Cool pic and hat.

This picture is not by accident taken on Hawai the very same summer when Lucas told Spielberg about a whipcracking, fedorawearing archeologist, is it? :wink:

Seriously. I get more looks from women while I'm wearing my fed than I ever did wearing a baseball cap, or no hat at all.

Cave painting? Getting nostalgic about your high school art class, are we?

Kidding! I'm a kidder!

Yep. Michaelson was the teacher, too! Jess kept eating the paint, though.
