: : Okay, for those of you curious to know the crown measurements
: : of an authentic Herbert Johnson, here goes:

: : I took a yellow plastic (cloth tape measurer) and mesured the crown
: : on two sides. On the very front center of the crown, the measure went
: : from where the crown comes out of the brim, to the part where it
: : creases in at the top, and we're talking strictly height: the
: : measurement was 4 and 3/4 inches. On the side, starting at the
: : bottom of the ribbon, the crown measured about 5 and 1/2 inches.
: : (If you were to punch the inside top of the crown out, you could
: : easily achieve six inches.
: : When it arrived, the crown was not bashed in at the front,
: : but the top was bashed into the standard u-shaped cavity, which
: : can be seen very well in stills from Raiders where Indy is jumping
: : from the horse onto the side of the truck. (Can also be seen very
: : well in raiders where he is in the temple with Satipo and bends down to brush the dust off of the floor (the camera is briefly directly
: : above them). Any more questions, measurements, etc? Also would be
: : more than happy to e-mail photos of my "Poet" courtesy of our new
: : Sony Mavica digital camera. (You get spectacularly well-lit, clear
: : shots instantly)
