Adam Savage and the Original Indiana Jones Fedora!

Adam gets up close with one of the most iconic pieces of film costuming ever: Indiana Jones fedora. It's on display at Prop Store as part of the Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction taking place at the end of the month. This is one of the original hero hats made for Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and Adam gets to examine its details like the manufacturing labels and distinctive "I J" initials stamped on the inside. This piece has Adam brimming with glee!

Clever plan Adam, I couldn't even tell when you switched the hats.

You know you're getting old when items made when you were a kid are now being handled with cotton gloves

[markwilliams]

I would have loved to have seen Harrison Ford walk in grab the hat, put it on and say "I've been looking for this everywhere" and walk off with it.

I love anyone who is comfortable admitting they don't know a word's pronunciation because they've only ever read it. A badge of honour that shows they constantly read beyond their vocabulary. <3

The reason why Adams hat is darker is because Adventurebilt made their hats darker on purpose since when your hat is exposed to sunlight is slowly turns lighter.

Love watching Adam snagging reference pics!

for fathers day a few years ago, our local movie theater had raiders showing that weekend, so we took my grandparents to watch it and seeing raiders of the lost ark in a movie theater was surreal almost. One of my favorite theater experiences

Adam "OMG it's Indy's Hat!"
Me: "MOVE! YOU'RE BLOCKING PICARD'S

[rexrabbiteer]

One thing I noticed is how from raiders onward the hat went from looking lived in to looking new and just looking more like an ordinary fedora with a shorter brim. I love the raiders fedora the most

[dejeans]

I just checked out the auction's catalog. It's almost too big, with some items potentially being overlooked. If you love models and props, there might be some deals as people get distracted by all the high-end props.

[tripwire]

I somewhat expected Adam to "attempt" the idol-swap-move with the fedoras

[llantup]

I love how Adam just unabashedly fanbois over these things!

Stron Work Adam!!! In researching the use of an "Indiana Jones Hat" for a shoot I am producing, ran across this video--so helpful to hear your comments and dialogue about details such obscure details in the movie that are so helpful.

I built a Indy outfit.. Herbert Johnson fedora, Wested leather jacket shirt and trousers, WWII gas mask bag, Gun holster and a 10ft real leather bull whip.. £600... It looks unreal. Harrison could easily wear it on set.

In 1998, I bought an Indy hat from HJ. I actually ordered it from Richard Swales himself. Mine has the 'IJ' inside as well.

[LLavery]

Is that Picard's flute from The Inner Light behind Adam?

[jacksparrow]

Adam your fedora uses the same petersham ribbon that was used for the raiders herbert Johnson back in 81. Richard Swales is the one who worked on all the Indy hats for the first three films. He came up with the dimensional cut brim.

[jerrybiv]

That is just TOO COOL that you Adam Savage were able to get a sort of “Behind the scenes” look at this

[danforthlaertes]

I was half expecting Adam to pose with the two hats and re-create the "swapping the idol for a bag of sand" scene with them . . .

[blackdra]

That a great hat, but how about we look at Picard's flute next
