: Just to set the record straight for all you out there, Gary
: White did NOT produce the fedora worn by Ford for the Last
: Crusade, as he would like you to believe. The fedoras for
: ALL 3 FILMS were produced by Herbert Johnson of London. I
: personally know all of the people responsible for the costume
: items, and am in possession of all of the original costume items
: and have been collecting them for years before you children
: leaked all this information to the Internet.

: Gary White's hats are...nice, but in no way do they compare to
: a real fedora from Herbert Johnson. Please do not fall victim
: to his claim, and by all means do not pay $395 for a fake when
: you can get the real thing for half the price.

: Stop fussing over these minute, idiosycratic details about the
: costume (brim width, jacket length, Harrison Ford's underwear
: size under the trousers, the exact number of stitches in the shirt, etc. ) and get on with your lives. You have all made collecting this outfit a complete bore and it no longer holds any interest to me. I'm just glad I obtained everything in quantity long before you all made it so dead common by blabbing everything to the Web.

: And another thing...NONE of you on this board would have any items
: of the costume if it wasn't for a very good friend of mine who tracked down the shirt and trousers years ago with lots of hard
: work, persistence, and patience.

: Final words: Get on with your lives, and by all means, get a girlfriend (or boyfriend).

Glad *you* got all *your* items in "quantity" (planning on cornering
the market?) before many other fans were kind and willing to share
their knowledge with others not yet in posession of authentic Indy
items. Too bad you are bored with collecting the items now and it
no longer holds interest for you. Maybe another hobby will come your
way; you could collect all those items in quantity and not be bored
any longer (at least not until someone blabs that information all
over the net).
