Nothing comes close to the official Indiana Jones hat for style and quality.
Gotta love the legal department.

Well, Ford did allow photos in the hat, in (otherwise full costume) and the licensing agreements were made -- so, it is what it is! And, again as they say in 'show-biz:' "Is the name of that tune
!" W>

I was talking about the "nothing comes close" sentence.
A claim that claims nothing.
Nothing comes close to cat poop as an afternoon snack either.

It's the hat pin, John. You don't include the hat pin.

Admitting you are doing it wrong is the first step of fixing the problem! I can already see it...the rat felt Penman Atlantic with a real hat pin on it. Accepting preorders?

A fur felt Dorfman Pacific.
Yep, they've been around for years, and actually that's a pretty decent price for one.
With proper craftsman attention, they actually make very nice looking hats when correctly bashed. We've seen quite a few examples posted here after a visit to a hat maker.

Was yours wool felt? Because that sounds more like the price of the wool-felt Dorfmans.
Best wishes,

Yep. Had to be wool felt. The fur felt versions are all above $100 or more and always have been.

To be honest, the collectors edition that I have is really great quality. It is 100% beaver fur too!

The beaver one is like putting lipstick on a pig. It still stinks.

That is really cheap!
I think that for that money you could close enough get a Federation Deluxe.
