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
You know you're getting old when items made when you were a kid are now being handled with cotton gloves
It’s been almost 41 years and movie props weren’t necessarily made to last. Ironically it’s preferred to not wear gloves when handling most old books.
@@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.
Well the last hat sold for over $300,000
Adam "OMG it's Indy's Hat!"
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.
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.
@@jakobvanklinkenlmao holy shit
You know where this hat belongs.
_that belongs in a museum_
On Harrison Ford's head in a final Indiana Jones movie ?
In a crate in a gigantic warehouse.
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.
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.
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 was really hoping the auctioneer knew the pronunciation, because Adam and I are in the same boat.
@@Riley_Mundt I believe the French pronunciation is widely considered correct, so as Adam said it, without pronouncing the "s"
Love watching Adam snagging reference pics!
I was amazed Adam didn't pull out a film ruler.
“It Belongs in a museum!”
So do you!
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
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
I love how Adam just unabashedly fanbois over these things!
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.
I somewhat expected Adam to "attempt" the idol-swap-move with the fedoras
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.
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.
That belongs in a museum!
So do you!
That is the most meta thing that could be said here.
In 1998, I bought an Indy hat from HJ. I actually ordered it from Richard Swales himself. Mine has the 'IJ' inside as well.
Well this got me searching on Herbert Johnson fedoras, and there's another rabbit hole to go down.
Tom Baker - Doctor Who wore a Herbert Johnson fedora also… useless tidbit. 😂
@@MikeJones-bj1cn Maybe, but I still upvoted you.
@@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 ! ;-)
Yup..this fedora led me to collecting. I snagged a 70 year old Homburg by HJ that still smelled like nice tobacco.
That a great hat, but how about we look at Picard's flute next
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.
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.
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 . . .
Love how he couldn't care less about harry potters wand right next over lol
The internet brings hat lovers together.
Did anyone else notice the famous “Raiders Turn” is not present in Harrison’s Fedora?
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.👍👍
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.
That is just TOO COOL that you Adam Savage were able to get a sort of “Behind the scenes” look at this
Mr Swales at Herbert Johnson was solely responsible for creating the Indy Poet from the standard Poet hat. I met him many times. A true gent.
I'd also crawl on my knees taking the photos of all the possible angles of these props! :D
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 bought that hat and showed my friends, they would be disappointed it is not from Raiders🤣
I rescued a licensed repro Indy hat from my uncle’s estate. Knowing how my family is, they would have just thrown it out.
@@GeneCash that was a great save! Hope you still have it, and keep it safe.
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.
omg it’s so much better for Adam to visit these auctions, he knows the prop history better than the auctioneer haha
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.
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.
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.
*I NEED THAT FEDORA!!!*
Resistol is another brand name that every cowboy knows. Everything about the company flows out from its mantra: “We live it every day,” from its longevity and prominence in the cowboy hat market to its base in the heart of Garland, Texas.
In a few years, Resistol will turn 100 years old, marking the company’s centennial anniversary with its impressive resume, distributing over a million of its famous cowboy hats each year.

The Prop Store's customer service is amazing.
Cannot recommend them enough.
The fact that Adam is taking multiple shots of the props really speaks to me. So many times, I wanted to do that ....
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!
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.
It belongs in a museum!!
I can't believe Adam didn't simulate the "swipe idol scene" with the hats.

Ironic that they aren't in a museum. I wish the original Star Wars and Indy props were all collect in their own museum.
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.
Really? Shit dude, that's a neat fact!
@@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.
Well that hat in the vid is not from raiders he specifically says it's from temple of doom
From what I've read, the original Raiders hat was a woman's hat that had the brim cut down and then was reblocked
@@TIAMATRIA Yeah, the Temple of Doom hat has a lower crown than the original.
i love how the Indy hats are so unique movie to movie that you can tell exactly what movie the hat is from just by the thumbnail
The Herbert Johnson Vintage Fedora hat ❗ Wowaweewah wowamundo 👀👍❗
Currently at $110,000. For a hat.
Worn by Harrison Ford so totally worth it.
It's a steal, really
Mine went for $55k at Profiles in History in Dec 2019. From ToD and signed by Harrison Ford. Not sure why this one is going for so much more. :(
It might be a prop but that fedoras is a example of high quality tailoring
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!
You can still buy Herbert Johnson hats. The have a store in London
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
Fan boy level 99 here. Man Adam.....bucket list stuff.
Thanks for watching.

One of the greatest films of all time.
It was fun looking through the catalog. Highlight would be Picards whistle
Ah, the holy artifacts. Most valuable.
I'm picturing Adam swapping the hats ever so gently
Thanks for watching.

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.
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.
Welcome back?
I cant imagine that Adam was able to leave.
This is a good day for Adam
Funnily enough, I looked into the prop auction before watching this. There is some really good stuff for sale
"That belongs in a museum"
For us Trekkies freaking out about Picard's Ressikan flute, it has an interesting history of when it first went to auction years ago. The auction house figured it was just some random one-episode prop and guessed its auction value at... $800. They had no clue about its significance to fans. It summarily sold at the auction for $48,000.
For the current auction it's under, it's estimated value is $50,000 - $70,000. They learned.
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.
I like the "bush Tucker man" hat.
Woah it is really awesome to see a real hero Indy hat.
7:58 Collecting new reference material.. wondering when the build will happen 😁
Waldorf and Stadtler! Very nice.
I’m very happy to learn my hat size is the same as Indiana Jones.
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.
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.
IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM!
I scrolled the comments for this....... Comment ;)
Edit: I can't spell, lol
It belongs in a Museum!
Gotcha moment when Adam was asked which movie (series) is your hat based on? Lol
I want the crusade hat with the staples in it lol
With Planet Hollywood restaurants closed, I suppose a lot of ultra-rare props have been hitting the market
Almost everybody that wears fedoras today is because of the Indiana Jones movies. That series made the hat cool again!
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
OH MY GOD IM SO HAPPY YOU HAVE THOSE AND THEY HAVE A GOOD HOME
Thanks for watching.

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.
The thumbnail needs that godly light behind the hat
I love Indiana Joines, but is that the Ressikan flute behind you!!
I have the same style stetson fedora. My grandpa gave it to me. I love it

I never noticed the difference between the hats and the hats that were in the Indiana Jones movies
I just wanna listen to these two talk Indiana Jones bts for an hour.
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
it belongs in a museum!
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.
That guy remind me from the MythBusters, like is he or not :0
Is that Picard’s flute? Talk about burying the lead!
Great! Really Nice!
Adam at the end, "Get yourself a Raiders hat!" I think the kind of Raiders hat I could afford, would not fit in at all, at an auction like this.
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?
Adam needs to get together with Props to History.
I am pretty sure he met Michael Core is at NOMCON.
You touched it with your bare hands!!!! I don't blame you.
