Indiana Jones wouldn’t be who he is without his iconic fedora, which grew into a popular piece of film memorabilia over the years. Harrison Ford wore many different hats while playing our favorite archeologist, and the one from Temple of Doom recently sold for a whopping $630,000.
The fedora from the second film in the Indiana Jones franchise was one of the items up for auction hosted by film and TV memorabilia company Propstore. The sable-colored rabbit felt hat was expected to fetch between $250,000 and $500,000, but it exceeded everyone’s expectations when it sold for $630,000 after 37 bids.
The hat in question comes from the personal collection of Ford’s late stunt double Dean Ferrandini. It was created by the Herbert Johnson Hat Company in London and presents an updated version of the hat from Raiders Of The Lost Ark, with a more tapered crown.
This wasn’t the only piece of film memorabilia to haft a hefty price at Propstore’s recent auction. An imperial scout trooper helmet from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi was bought for $315,000, a ghost costume from Scream attracted a winning bid of $270,900, while a light-up wand used by Daniel Radcliffe in Harry Potter & The Prisoner of Azkaban sold for $53,550.
