I think the guys buying this today are Monkeyleg's normal customers. They thought the model came with the hat. :P

When I was younger, anyone wearing that hat would have been a super-dork.

Well, in the 1920's most all hat-wearing was done by women, so yeah, a guy wearing that hat would have raised a few eyebrows.

Actually, AJ, the wearing of hats amongst men was common and fashionable right up to about the 1960's. By "hats" I mean dress hats, not MacKenzie brothers hats. ;)

Also, isn't the Zardoz photo a violation of APS rules now?
Violation? It's practically the APS mascot.  :P

At 41:17, there's a quite good rendition of "The Hero of Canton."

Every pic I've seen from the 1950's and earlier show men wearing some form of hat outdoors. Fedora, cowboy hat etc depending on region.

It was customary for English middle class men to often wear a suit and hat no matter what the event (Alfred Hitchcock dressed in this middle class fashion).

There was a photo published in the Houghton/Hancock MI newspaper of my grandfather fishing in a rowboot wearing a suit and hat.

He didn't look like Doug MacKenzie, though.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Back then, was "Doing the Charleston" all the rage it's made out to be in history books?

I've been seeing these hats on guys the last couple of months (minus the fuzzy balls) :




So that's what I've been doing wrong....I haven't been wearing the hat......
