Cat in the hat? Have you never heard of Tama? Now that's a cat in a hat.

Tama (Japanese: たま, April 29, 1999 – June 22, 2015) was a female calico cat who gained fame for being a station master and operating officer at Kishi Station on the Kishigawa Line in Kinokawa, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan.

Outrageously Outstanding Greg!
I about had to waste $50 worth of TP reading that.
Best post in a long time around here.
That will NEVER leave my brain.

Who can forget the days when the Kirby door to door vacuum cleaner salesman partnered with the Dobbs hat company?
Sorry, we're all tapped out from buying the World Book Encyclopedia and that swamp land in Florida, go away...

Another "But why?" hat from our friends at Herbert Johnson...

That would be just the thing to wear when you're taking Fido out to do his business on the neighbor's lawn.

This is the famous Victorian engineer Isomard Kingdom Brunel. He and President Lincoln not only have a penchant for the stove pipe hat but by coincidence both were born in 1809, Brunel died two years before Lincoln, and in less tragic circumstances.

OK, speaking of odd Lincoln hats. I bought this one a few years ago. It is the strangest piece. I bought it from a guy in St. Louis who said it belonged to a man who owned a chain of shoe stores in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. So, what I think is maybe this guy had Stetson make this giant top hat for him to use in Lincoln Day sales on TV commercials or in print ads for his stores... but that is just my guess . This top hat is felt (not silk plush) and is super tall at 8-1/2 inches. Most top hats are never taller than 7-1/2 or so. So, this one is gigantic. It is an official Stetson, though, because it has a Stetson liner, the Stetson size tag, a Stetson reorder tag, and a Stetson sweatband imprint. I can't imagine that Stetson ever made a line of these wacky toppers. So, I am assuming the original owner ordered it special made.

I don't see how you can put a price on this one.

Reminds me of this Tonak I bought several years ago. At about 8" tall it's too ridiculous to wear in public, but damn fun to have.
