    And it's stories like this--along with my own self-observations--that caused me to stop judging the birds on Animal Planet for picking up worthless shiny trash.

    Great Movie (and TV) Hats

    "Despite the television show’s invitation to return to “those thrilling days of yesteryear,” The Lone Ranger of the 1950s depicted times, places and things as they never were."
    [​IMG]

    "The mask alone would have earned the Texas Ranger, John Reid, a necktie party by one vigilance committee or another in the Old West. As for the rest of his ensemble, that powder blue leisure suit would have gotten actor Clayton Moore, who played the Lone Ranger, laughed off the frontier. Likewise, his pinched-front felt hat—essentially an oversized nearly white fedora—was directly out of central wardrobe. Will Rogers would have raised a skeptical eyebrow." (READ MORE)

    The Cowboy Hat defines the wearer. . . .
    "A 19th century cowboy prized his old west hat above all things – with good reason. It was often worth a month or two’s wages – and that made it very expensive. The cowboy likely spent hours personalizing the hat with creases to the crown and molding the brim – making it his.
    An old west cowboy would go to hell and back to retrieve a misplaced cowboy hat and it was seldom further than an arm’s length away." (read more)
