Original Indiana Jones concept, produced by Jim Steranko.

• The fedora – designed and built by Maryse Wilkins of Madamme Netter hats in Syracuse NY for the first film, and made by Herbert Johnson Hatters in England for the second and third films. .Indy's fedora for Crystal Skull were made by Steve Delk and Marc Kitter of the Adventurebilt Hat Company.^ Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull – The Abridged Script: that would have been a shorter and more honest movie had they made it.

  .Raiders of the Lost Ark and The Last Crusade.^ I love them all but favorite is Raiders of Lost Ark because of the scene of power emitted from the ark and people melt.

  ^ Sure, it's no Last Crusade and definitely no Raiders (neither Temple nor Crusade came anywhere near Raiders, so I didn't expect Crystal Skull to either), but it was fun.
