I first found out a couple of months ago that not only is there a hat museum here in Portland Oregon but it's the largest hat museum in the whole USA.

I visited the museum, and Alice ( The women who has kept the museum alive) stops me to inspect my hat. She tells me "This is a beauty, and one of the best I have seen in a very long time." I tell her it's mine and she ask if I can stay and chat after the small group leaves. I stay behind and we talk for a hour and half. Her info and is very limited on Indy's hats and the display was not good for our favorite adventurer. Long story short, one of my Indy Raiders replicas was excepted today with a Penman hat co. box for the hat museum and should be on display in about a month. She is having a special display case made for the hat and moving things around to better show it off. She also said that the hat box was by far the nicest hat box she has ever seen. She has a boxes on display from every aera.
If you live or ever in town not a bad stop to make. Check it out.
