**** Tracy fedora

[reservoirdog]

Anyone know who makes a bright yellow fedora?

And, perhaps, a bright yellow trenchcoat as well?

I've heart some rumors that Joe jr. (Petersbros.) made ONE...

But he's out 'till March anyway, so...

Regards,

Marc

Actually, Joe has made a few, I think three or four.

What size are you looking for. I has just recently blocked out a yellow body I came across and might be persuaded to part with it.

Typically, I'm a 7 3/8.

Although, I'm thinking more in the future. I'm not ready to purchase anything at the moment. Just kind of testing the market to see if it's something I can eventually afford.

JP,

What is the "Style" called on those "**** Tracy" hats? How tall is the crown and and what was the brim size?

I also liked that style of hat in the movie. I don't think I would buy a yellow one but I would be interested in another color.

Cheers!
Gabe

Gary White claims to have made the **** Tracy hat.
You may want to give him a call.

The dent in the top had a triangular shape to it, but not a real teardrop. The crown is a little shorter than indies.

By the by, welcome to the lounge JP Design.


If you are looking for a replica of the hat in **** Tracy, I'll vouch for Joe Peters ability to make accurate reproductions. He just has a great eye.

Matt,

Thanks for the suggestion regarding Joe, Jr.. I have been in his shop a couple of times and have yet to meet the gentleman. However, next time I am in the Ft. Worth area I will drop by and talk to him about getting a **** Tracy replica in a Grey or Ivory color.

Thanks again.

Gabe

I have a book on the making of **** Tracy by Mike Bonifer (1990) and I wish it wasn't so, but the fedora was.......


a Stetson.

The Yellow Trench was Burberry's.

 

[Pen Collector]

Does the book say what style of Stetson hat it was?

Anyone know who makes a bright yellow fedora?

Beaver Brand makes a bright yellow hat called Dijon.

GOT $2,500?

Speaking of **** Tracy, I spotted this item:

It would seem to me that the studio would have had a half dozen of these around during filming. One to offer without ****** holes, that is.

Even better would be a ****** hole fedora from Warren Beatty in Bonnie and Clyde--- Or the real thing from Clyde!

I found that site will looking for There Will Be Blood hats. They've got a bunch of great costumes from the movie, also with very high prices.

I saw one at az-tex hats about a month ago when I picked up my hat

Worth and Worth has a hat called "primavera" in a canary yellow, but it's
$295, maybe a bit much for a **** Tracy hat. There's an ad with Sean Connery wearing one in an off white color, maybe silverbelly?

Here are two hats Major Moore made back in '08 for a Memphis Fedora Lounge get together.
It was Duck Tracy and Gene Hornet.
