Indiana Jones Screen Used Raiders of The Lost Ark Fedora

[ForceBeWithYou]

Here is a photo of Harrison Fords Screen Worn Fedora from Raiders of the Lost Ark which went up for sale at the Prop Store Auction. Interesting to note that the famous “Raiders Turn” is not present. When drawn with an arrow, it goes straight through the Herbert Johnson logo right to the front of the hat.

Do you own it?

Do you own it?

No. I don’t have that sort of cash. This was a screenshot taken of the fedora before shortly being put up for auction.

The turn only happens in the Cairo scenes, so it must be a hat used in other parts of the movie.

Huh, I didn't realize some Raiders hats were lined.

Well for one… that hat is from Temple of Doom. And two, all of the “Raiders” hats had the turn per Indygear.com. My own hat was modeled after the Raven bars scene by Herbert Johnson which distinctly has the turn in it.

Yup, drftfan's got it right. That photo is the hat from Temple of Doom, and only Raiders hats had the turn. This is the inside of the hero hat from Raiders, note that it does not have a lining.

You can quibble about the "amount of turn", but this is essentially - "no turn".

Nadoolman pretty much confirms the original hats had liners. And Michelle at HJ said they shipped their Raiders hats with liners for the movie production.

"As the only true authenticator of Indiana Jones’s first khaki attire, Landis (Nadoolman) stretched her memory 30 years and began sorting through fedoras, hoping one might resemble the original Raiders hat....

...eventually, one hat in particular caught her eye. Unlike the others she’d inspected, this fedora’s interior lining had the original label of Herbert Johnson, the British hatmaker that had supplied the Raiders inventory. Surrounded by Indy paraphernalia, Landis let out a sigh of relief. “I couldn’t imagine that I would find anything from the first film,” Landis admits. “That was Harrison’s no. 1 hat, that was the holy grail. … It was a tingling, hair-on-the-back-of-the-head moment.”

How Indiana Jones’s Fedora Became an Artifact With a Life of Its Own

Soon after the 1981 premiere of ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark,’ Indy’s hat—with its pinched box crown, diagonal crease, and asymmetrical brim—spurred a fan base within a fan base, filled with pseudoarchaeologists set on uncovering the accessory’s true origins

Last crusade hat had two different liner and logo colors inside the hate. White liner and gold logo at the edge of the cliff. Champaign liner and red logo at Donovan's house...
