Too bad neither hat is on better condition. I guess twenty years will do that.

N1095A and Rubber Chicken...you're my kid of people....notice the little things. :D Yes it would be great if someone on this forum would be the proud owner of any of the 3 items, in these times all my and my wife's extra cash are going to her credit card..... :evil: . But we are getting it down...litttle by little. Yes it's a shame the hats aren't in better condition, but just seeing them at all this close is pretty cool, I'm printing them for my personal Magnum PI props collection. I wish the hats had tags in them to identify the maker of just the hat, that way finding a blank would be easier. Also if you notice the type of hat also differs...from a 3 1/2" crown to a 4" crown. T.C.'s is a 4" crown for sure. Always thought it funny T.C. wearing a NAVY SEALS hat when he was in the USMC. Makes me wonder what other props will pop up from this seller in the future...hopefully some more goodies. It kinda bums me a little not being able to buy an original, but with all my other props over the years have been replicas..and you know what...I'm OK with that. :D

I'm thinking of aiming for one of the Tigers caps. I would actually wear it during softball games that I play.

Someone has started bidding on all these hats....was it anyone on here?

N1095A your seal hat looks amazing. That sucks that you can't wear it. My hat looks more like the one TC was wearing in "Texas Lightening". I still look for a camo blank with the green mesh back, but still coming up empty, if I ever track one down, I'll drop you a line.

Where did you end up finding the green border patch, the ones now mostly are black or dark green. I appreciate the offer on the bracelet, But I have like 4 or 5 already. I do eventually need to get a Lancaster bracelet like Magnum's

Ouch, the camo cap just went up to over $120. Thankfully there will be 2 more auctioned later on.

I will put a bid on the Tigers Hat soon, wish me luck you guys!

Didn't he say on each one that "this is 1 of 3" of the same hat? Maybe I read it wrong then, unless he was using at least 3 hats of each time and time again.

Mike - nice job on the camo SEAL cap! It looks great!

Mike/RC - nice job on investigating the camo SEAL caps used in the show!

How many different camo SEAL caps were worn in the show? The world may never know... ;)
