@@curiousentertainment3008 It's been a long time since I was in a National Archives site, at least 10 years, but back then they required us to wear gloves when handling documents. At the San Bruno site, there were some records from Pearl Harbor, including some documents signed by the Captain of the Arizona December 6, 1941. (Mundane stuff, but the sense of history when holding them...)
@@Warshipmodelsunderway I did some work in the Library of Congress a couple of years ago, reviewing old documents for research. The general practice was bare, clean hands. The idea was that the oils in your hands, while they may discolor the pages, they would prevent the paper from drying out and becoming brittle. In the observation deck in the Jefferson building, you would be hard pressed to find someone wearing gloves in the Reading room.
@@Riley_Mundt That interesting to know. When I went they were very rigid about, well, everything. You even had to orient the document boxes to face a certain direction so the observer could see you handle the documents going in and out of them. I was handling some old photographs as part of my research, so I could see wearing gloves for those, but I remember the rule then was gloves on all the time. Might have been that particular facility of course.
And then I would have loved to see Spielberg in, putting on a long kitchen glove and fisting Ford and then saying "Lost Ark? More like lost passion for acting!" Adam would ask him if there are any kidneystones to be found now that his fist is still up there (for Adams' collection! ) - and then Stanley Kubrick would come in, back from the dead, explaining how its impossible to find kidney stones in the digestive track. If you do not care to waste your time on stupid daydreams and in-jokes, you're not a real fan of whatever IP, and you're not the original commenter above
Or... Mark Hamill walks in, grabs the hat, does a pitch-perfect imitation of Harrison Ford saying "I've been lookin' for this everywhere" and walks off with it... And then Harrison Ford walks in, says "I don't sound anything like that, kid!" grabs the hat away from Hamill and walks out.
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.
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.
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.

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
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
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.
@@MikeJones-bj1cn My son always wore my Indy hat as a 4th Doctor hat stand in when he dressed up as Tom Baker with the long accurate scarf his mom knitted for him. Now I can say it was legitimate ! ;-)
Re 4:30, I was interested to find out that production went back to Herbert Johnson for the Dial of Destiny hats. I'm not sure how much I like the DoD hat yet. Maybe I'll know more when the film comes to streaming. But, in a couple of shots in the theater -- particularly in the train scene -- I thought the hat lacked its usual character. Maybe I'm wrong, though. Great video! What a treat to see one of the originals!
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.
Ha great timing Harison Ford and the film crew for the next Indiana film have been at a small vilage not far from my home.They also used The North Yorkshire Steam Railway as part of the set. This was a few weeks after Tom Cruise was at the same railway filming his next blockbuter.👍👍
I wish Adam had spent some time on the other pieces, almost every page of the catalog had me wanting the thing for sale. I particularly liked "Harry Potters" wand and glasses, the Star Wars lightsabers or the blue R2 droid. I see the Hellboy Samaritan is there as well, and I know Adam loves that prop.
Interesting video about a famous prop. Fun fact: the fedora was actually a woman’s hat, at first, for french actress Sarah Bernhardt. In 1882 she was in a play called «Fédora» and Bernhardt was playing Russian princess Fedora Romanov.
at 7:55 the bottom right thing in the left side of the cabinet with supports - what is that? I recognise it- I think its a spaceship model right? But i forget what movie.
Interestingly, that slate (in its final form) is actually from a shoot day that never happened. According to J.W. Rinzler's The Complete Making of Indiana Jones, the crew had a wrap party in Tunisia on September 24th and the next day (the date on the slate) a second unit was scheduled to shoot establishing shots of the Nazi secret island (scene 135 in the shooting script) at Sidi Bou Said with the island of Zembra as the stand-in. But they had to travel by boat and the boat wouldn't start and it turned out that the boat wasn't large enough for the crew and equipment they had to bring, so they abandoned the shoot and ILM did the island as a matte painting instead. On September 25th, the crew departed Tunisia for Hawaii.
Thanks for this info! Super helpful, I was wondering if Sept 25th 1980 was in Tunisia or Hawaii - Looks like the last day in Tunisia!! The auction listing says the slate has a lot of tape at the bottom - probably use for the 2nd unit during the time in Tunisia!
The Herbert Johnson hats are EXCEPTIONALLY made - I wouldn't be surprised to see this looking just fine in 50 years. Eventually I want to get one myself but it's just too warm when I live to justify spending what I do on a hat that I'd only wear twice a year on my adventures travelling
Harrison would turn the hat with the bow going towards his eye, which caused the brim to turn up. This is know as the Raiders Turn. Harrison would then push out the brash and re-pinch it to get the pinch in the brash more center duw to the turn. Herbert Johnson Hatters did the hat for Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
Fedora's are so cool, tried making wool into felt for a hat, thats fun. made something a medeival pesant would probably turn their nose up at. Great to see the auction items.
One thing people don't talk about is that the design of the hat was created by a brazilian company named Cury Hats for the film, which were than finished in the States with the addition of the details, the internal cloth, etc. They still produce hats in the city of Campinas in Brasil.
One of my biggest regrets is missing out on buying Robert Duval's cavalry hat from Apocalypse Now by about 5 minutes while I checked on cash availability before pushing "buy". I'm not a movie prop collector but man, that would have been my most precious possession.
That real Indy Hat is different from the Raider's hat in that the crown is too low. The fedora's of the 30's and 40's had a very distinctive high crown that most modern fedoras lack. Notice the hat Adam is wearing. When you look at it in profile the crown starts to bend just above that hat band and slopes back. The original Raiders hat does not have that bend in the crown, it shoots up at a slight angle straight from the brim with no bend until it reaches a very high peak.
@@eanna3781 That high peak in front is what gives it the fedora that distinctive look that you see in old movies and why they never look quite the same when you try one on in the store.
I have an original reproduction that I got from my dad and a newer reproduction I got in Disney World -- it's amazing how different they are in the details
@@DoctorX17 I've see the Disney version and they are total bunk, not even attempting to be screen accurate. If that's what you want, there are better places to look.

I've never got the kind of hat being a wide brimmed fadora as it doesn't have that slid back fadora look of the short brimmed ones have or even Pete Postlethwaite's wide brimmed fedora in Lost World. Maybe Harrison Ford's side curling of the brim between shots is doing something that's taking it out of that fedora look?
Some absolutely incredible pieces in this auction, I was completely blown away to see it had Jasons Mask as well as one of the original Ghostface masks. Absolute grails.
Indy fesoras brims have dimensional cut. Raiders hat is turned...it wasnt on his head straight...this turn distorts the brim and gives it an awesome shape.
Adam, if you ever travel to Buffalo, might be worth visiting Gary White. Gary made one of the hats for the Last Crusade I think, and countless others. Last I heard, Gary had no apprentice/successor lined up and his collection of materials tools etc will likely go to a museum when he retires.
Hi. Adam could you please let me know what color your fedora hat is? Light brown, light chocolate brown. So i can get the right color match or close to it.

More than a decade ago, I was picking up office equipment that had gone off lease, and been replaced with a newer model. I don't remember the name of the business, but I knew it had a connection to Lucasfilm. The contact person led me to a storage room, about the size of a small bedroom. I had to put shrink wrap around the equipment, so as I was bending down to get the bottom part, I saw a saddle, and commented to the contact. She said, "Oh that's from Indiana Jones, along with his jacket and hat." I looked up to see a coat rack with a fedora, a leather jacket, and a whip. "Oh, those are replicas?" "No, those are the real ones." I looked again and also noticed Sean Connery's hat and jacket(cloak?) on the rack. I am not gutsy enough to have asked to put them on and have her take a picture, but I was allowed to take a picture of them as they were situated.

If i remember correct the first movie had the biggest top part hat, and I think that one look the best. The second and third movie have smaller top, which is clearly visible.
Ah, so you are at the collection of the auction I mentioned, the one that is also selling Phantom Menace screen used miniature this round. Did you work on any of these Adam?
Steve Delk and Marc Kitter of the Adventurebilt Hat Company, made the once for the 4th not great movie, movie terrible the hat were great, and pretty awesome for a company that first made hats just for fans, to end up getting the job making the new Indiana Jones Hat.
I would come across similar style fedoras in hat shops, and no matter how I tried them on and what sizes, they never looked right. I kept thinking I must either have the wrong size to fit the hat, or it’s not exact, or something. And they always felt a little too loose. At one point, when I looked really closely at the hat in footage, I noticed parts of it seeming off center. And the next time I came across such a hat again, I tried twisting it off center and putting a temporary crease and not only did the slightly too large hat fit a little more snugly, it looked a lot closer! And it wasn’t until years later, after much more research and collaboration by more hardcore fans aggregated all the disparate information out there and it confirmed Indy’s hat actually was twisted!
To my understanding, some or all of the ToD hats were Stetson and this doesn't look like a ToD bash at all! It wasn't pinched in the front nearly that much! (reference Club Obi Wan forums and rabaid fans there in)
Clever plan Adam, I couldn't even tell when you switched the hats.
The greatest heist. His entire career had lead to this one moment. Expertly done lol
I was thinking the exact thing. Looked like he was trying to switch em. Im sure he at leaat thought of it as a joke.
I had a "Raiders" moment of thinking Adam would switch the hats like the weight in Raiders, haha.
lol
lmaooo

Me: "MOVE! YOU'RE BLOCKING PICARD'S FLUTE!!!!!"
I knew I couldn't have been the only one to notice.
No indeed… same here! Inner Light baby!
Ok that got a good chuckle snort out of me. 🤭
Probably my favorite TNG episode. Ok, no probably, it is my favorite.
This times 1 million
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.
Then the boulder prop goes loose and starts going after him.
Except knowing Harrison he'd walk in and go "It's just a fucking hat!" and walk off to smoke some weed.

Plain veg tan will darken from the sun if it isn't dyed. I love leather so much lol
@@FUBARguy107 the hats are made of felt.
It's darker because it's less than thirteen years old as opposed to the Temple of doom hat which is at least thirty-eight years old.
I was wondering if the original was lighter because it spent months baking in the Tunisian sun
And Cristal Skull's hat is much brighter, almost greyish. Kudos to the prop team.
You know where this hat belongs.
_that belongs in a museum_
In a crate in a gigantic warehouse.

Is that Picard's flute from The Inner Light behind Adam?
You're probably right, that pink thing has 'star trek' on it....
Yes, it it the Ressican Flute.
Yup! And it looks like the "pink thing" is a script for the episode too
Yep. If you ever run into Morgan Grendel at a convention, he sells replicas of that.

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 . . .
That belongs in a museum!

That is the most meta thing that could be said here.

Judging from the taper, would you say that's the hat from the scene(s) that take place inside the plane?
it belongs in a museum!
One of the greatest films of all time.
amazing to see the original like that... i must say though, this is one of the most accurate closed captioning episodes i've seen. ROFL
Hi. Adam could you please let me know what color your fedora hat is? Light brown, light chocolate brown. So i can get the right color match or close to it.
Omg I always thought my hat size was weird being 7 1/4 but it is so fucking sick that I have the same hat size as adam and indy
Is 7 1/4 weird? That’s my size too, but I never considered whether it was common or not haha.
It's probably the most common hat size

"No, those are the real ones."
I looked again and also noticed Sean Connery's hat and jacket(cloak?) on the rack. I am not gutsy enough to have asked to put them on and have her take a picture, but I was allowed to take a picture of them as they were situated.

So Harrison Ford's head is a 59 cm in size, as seen at 4:01
However 7-1/4 in size as it also says, is 57.8 cm
Almost everybody that wears fedoras today is because of the Indiana Jones movies. That series made the hat cool again!
That was awesome but on the right is Ressikan flute from Inner Light!!!!!
Thanks for watching.

The movie slate would actually have me more interested than the hat. It makes such a nice display piece.
that's the cool thing about props - everyone has a different thing they love. Highly recommend The Stuff Dreams are made of podcast if you are into props.
Was that an Engineer helmet? So many cool things here.
At least one or two of the later movies, I think used Australian Akubra's (traditionally a stockman's hat).
Ironic that they aren't in a museum. I wish the original Star Wars and Indy props were all collect in their own museum.
You touched it with your bare hands!!!! I don't blame you.
Is that the inner light flute behind them??? WHY AREN'T WE SEEING A VIDEO ON THAT?!?!
Thanks for watching.

The thumbnail needs that godly light behind the hat
If i remember correct the first movie had the biggest top part hat, and I think that one look the best.
The second and third movie have smaller top, which is clearly visible.
*I NEED THAT FEDORA!!!*
It BELONGS in a museum!! 😂 (I want it too!)
what was this stone> aand where in move it was used?
Ah, so you are at the collection of the auction I mentioned, the one that is also selling Phantom Menace screen used miniature this round.
Did you work on any of these Adam?
Didn't Swaine Adeney & Brigg make some of these hats too, I cannot remember which film it was though.
Steve Delk and Marc Kitter of the Adventurebilt Hat Company, made the once for the 4th not great movie, movie terrible the hat were great, and pretty awesome for a company that first made hats just for fans, to end up getting the job making the new Indiana Jones Hat.
Are we just gonna ignore the fact that PICARD'S FLUTE is in the background??
You don't have to. Go ahead!
Too bad it doesn't actually function, but that's probably a good thing as it reduces wear on such an iconic prop.
I would come across similar style fedoras in hat shops, and no matter how I tried them on and what sizes, they never looked right. I kept thinking I must either have the wrong size to fit the hat, or it’s not exact, or something. And they always felt a little too loose.
At one point, when I looked really closely at the hat in footage, I noticed parts of it seeming off center. And the next time I came across such a hat again, I tried twisting it off center and putting a temporary crease and not only did the slightly too large hat fit a little more snugly, it looked a lot closer!
And it wasn’t until years later, after much more research and collaboration by more hardcore fans aggregated all the disparate information out there and it confirmed Indy’s hat actually was twisted!
What model watch are you wearing? Thanks
Adam Savage: “hey look over there!” 👀
yoink… 🤠
To my understanding, some or all of the ToD hats were Stetson and this doesn't look like a ToD bash at all! It wasn't pinched in the front nearly that much! (reference Club Obi Wan forums and rabaid fans there in)
I just wanna listen to these two talk Indiana Jones bts for an hour.
